Worthless;

stranded at the bottom

of your ice cold heart

i'm easily forgotton

since you tore me apart

 

why must you make me

feel worthless

why must your words be

so ruthless

I'm standing on my own

blackened soul

But all I want is just to

feel whole

 

seventeen years in hiding

to try and escape the pain you cause

but you won't stop the fighting

won't stop pointing out my flaws

 

you've left me no place to run.

no matter where i've gone

your words, they've stung

but maybe it's me that's been wrong all along

 

maybe i'm as worthless

as your words have professed

 

why must you make me

feel worthless

why must your words be

so ruthless

I'm standing on my own

blackened soul

But all I want is just to

feel whole

 

your words they burn

but your soul is cold

filled with unconcern.

i don't understand

how could you treat me like

you'd rather be damned

well maybe that's right where you're headed

it's your own daughter who's heart you shredded

 

why must you make me

feel worthless

why must your words be

so ruthless

I'm standing on my own

blackened soul

But all I want is just to

feel whole

All I want is to feel whole

I could feel the pain in this, very well done, I know where your coming from, and your not worthless, look at what you've achieved in this poem... a very eloquently put and potent peice of writing.
