nothing changes...

confined in a secluded cell

one you've made for me

one you've crafted

by your lies and manipulation

so many times I'd cry

or beg you to stop

so many times

I'd endure the abuse

I never understood at the time

why I had to submit myself to you

I thought that I was ungrateful

because you said you loved me

even though you still did

all those things

after I asked you to stop...

nothing gets better

the harassment hasn't stopped

nor has the stalking

or the defamation

you still reverse the blame onto me

and call me the things

that you did to me

and I now have to live with the pain

and the constant reminders

and frequent nightmares

and constant panic attacks

I'm scared to sleep

because I dream of hanging

from the trees

to witness you staring back at me

to witness you doing

all those disgusting things you did

I'm so tired of it all

the paranoia, threats

the lies, you telling me to kill myself

why was I never enough?

why did you take advantage?

and why do you still lie?

it hurts so much

it hurts so fucking much...

you knew my past...

and my weaknesses...

yet you used it all against me...
