My thoughts are filled with anger

With guilt

I wish I never existed

Nothing would change

It might even be better

If I was gone

I'm called a failure

A disappointment

My hardest efforts

They still just aren't good enough

You don't know

Yet you keep saying you do

I absorb the thorns

Restrain my fiery tongue

I feel alone

And yet I must keep it in

My heart becomes stone

But then your voice becomes soft

You try to reason with me

A small smile

You tell me you're still proud

That you still love me

I'm called a blessing

Encouraged to work harder

You slowly walk up

Your arms embrace me

I feel grateful

I now feel shame

I let my agony become poison

And now you've cleansed it

I can't keep it in

My tears fall

The stone shatters

My heart becomes glass

I'm sorry

...Yup. Just venting my emotions through the wonderful power of words. Thank goodness for poetry Sweating a little...
