Come Undone

Everyday you torment me,

Stab me with your words.

All of you believe it’s great

That from you I fly, like a panicky bird.

I make an effort to avoid you,

Even by clinging to the wall.

You lash out at me with violence and hate,

Just so you can laugh as you watch me fall.

You’ve no idea the walls of fear I’ve built,

Surrounding me in their cold embrace.

But these walls I forever renovate,

For they crumble every time I glimpse your face.

Is it your goal to kill me with malice?

Do you yearn to watch me die?

Or is my humiliation enough to slake you?

Does it grant you pleasure to see me cry?

I’m quite fed up with your odious games,

Which is why I now lift this blade.

I will end my pain, right here, right now,

And take care of the tab you’ve yet to pay.

It is now my turn to have some fun.

My purity you stole; I will forever lament.

It’s time for me to come undone,

For it is you, not I, who must repent.
