Is Was, Will always be
expect willing obedience from conseededness and domination
like expecting a bear to calm down….
after stepping in a bear trap in the woods
You expect submission from her as she trots through a teenage girls
right of passage,
as she does what everyone else around her does
(wether you know who or not).
You dont accept
you dont understand and call it a
¨lack of reason¨
So decided for her is a darker road to travel.
You show your power
stand on your pedestal of
Gastly authority
you try to make excuses for her apparent misery.
You try to counteract it between appointments
items that excuse your ideology on a “ constructive” punishment
you belive it makes up for disecting her already dimmed soul
exploiting her darkest fears to “teach a lesson”
make her understand she did wrong, you repeat to yourself to feel peace in this
She knows.
She trys.
You give her a coffee and call it good.
You make her abandon who she loves
in fear you wont be able control if they go near her again.
They will.
But under your permission to prove that she is willing
only you ignore this possibility and
assume
assume
assume
For now you restrict her from a device
if it is given she forgets her rules
forgets respect and herself.
She has a problem because she cannot handle loneliness
reflection of this inability to be herself is
disrespect
is rude
unnacceptable.
You justify this mental torture because your books and your therapist say so.
If subjecting those who
you
brought here to
Inescapable
fear makes you feel power then so be it
continue.
Do not expect the love you some day
hope for
do not say
I love you.
What little meaning youve brought to this phrase
Teach that someone who kills your passion and makes you unlike anything before
Is love
No wonder she has chosen these boys
No wonder she is hit
Disrespected
Cheated on
And violated.
She became used to it
She was sorry
She was abused
used by enough boys
Her dad and her mom doing it wasnt much different.
a maze
Path of rewards, path of dead ruthless ends.
It is
It was
It would always be
Not her
