WHAT I LIKE ABOUT YOU

*WHAT I LIKE ABOUT YOU*

I like your quirkiness
and that you’re open
to new things

you are intrigued
by the differences of others
because you too are different

you still have an innocence
about you that’s refreshing
for a woman of your
particular age

you have this hope for love
even after the things you’ve
been through

you have this inner strength
that’s very admiring

you accept honesty and
directness without whining,
but will not accept disrespect

You think outside the box
and are very intelligent,
but…

*PROCLAIMERS*

I don’t need to
be told what to do
especially by someone
younger than me
You younglings are
not my savior For
you are masters
at telling, yet clever
when confessing
Extremely skilled
at concealing

You self-proclaimed
“mature” are not
impressive anymore
You self-proclaimed
adult “whole adults”
have proven to be
the opposite with a
hidden immaturity
which is completely
unexpected

I don’t care for
unsolicited advice
If I haven’t asked
for it Don’t repeat
what I’ve already
learned You sound
like a broken record

You sound like a
broken record Your
inflated head is filled
with useless air to
me Use it on someone
less experienced

Don’t try to control
me I am not your
puppet to further
destroy To further
annoy

If you’ve never
walked in my
shoes I don’t
wanna hear it
And don’t tell me
that “you’re sorry”
Please keep to
yourself the tidy
and clean shoe
you’ve walked
into my life with

I can save myself
I will save myself
Take me or leave
Complete me
Don’t attempt to
deceive me

SELFISH FOOLS

*SELFISH FOOLS*

People are cruel
out here
in the world
They are
no better
They are
no better
Believing what
I’d left behind
was the worst
that there could
be,
But I was
wrong
Oh, I was
wrong
Maybe love
wasn’t meant
for me
Maybe I
wasn’t meant
for it
Floating along
this lonely sea
I’m beginning
to think that it’s
not just me
This world
is cruel
This world
is cruel
Completely
filled with selfish
fools

DAUGHTER OF A NARC

*DAUGHTER OF A NARC*

I could be having a calm
and stressfree day, but as soon
as I pick up your voicemail,
there you are weeping about
something
And to be truthful I be thinking
that it’s all a manipulative
front you put on
It’s as if you enjoy ruining
peoples day
I’m trying so hard to make
it day by day, to move forward,
to heal, to grow stronger
but then you call and it’s
always about you
weeping and weeping
Telling me that you love me,
making it very hard to believe
