You were your opressor

You were your opressor

A Poem by Thisismythearpy
"

When someone says you're oppressing them when they are only oppressing themselves.

"
Label me
With the labels on yourself

Label yourself with words I did not say
Then tell me how you feel that way

Say I make you feel bad
Make you feel sad

For the imaginary things I say

Words never spoken
Promises never broken

Rules never placed
Boundaries never made

You wrote your own book of oppression

Then forced the pen into my hand

When asked who wrote it
You said I was the man

My pen never made a stroke
On the rules in which you choke

You forged your chain
Onto me you placed the blame

Then left me in pain
