YES, I TALKED BACK,
I’M TIRED OF HAVING TO BEAR THE PAIN OF EVERY SINGLE THING YOU THROW AT ME,
DOING THAT INCREASES MY THOUGHTS OF WORTHLESSNESS,
AND THAT IS SO NOT WHAT I STAND FOR.
GO FIND SOMEONE ELSE TO BE USED THE WAY I ONCE WAS.

I’ve been your punching bag for far too long,
But now, I’m reclaiming the strength you tried to beat out of me,
I won’t let your anger define my worth,
You’ve made me question everything about myself,
But I refuse...
