I am not whole
I am merely fragments of what was
Pieces of who I used to be
A mass less dense
And yet I am taking up more space
I am an entity
I’m not enough to be loved
I’m not full of life
Because you turned me upside down
And pour out all that I was born with
I am not your puppet
I am not to be played with
I am not put here for your entertainment
I am no longer a lifeless creature or your habit
I have no body
You took it from me
To keep me safe or so I thought
That’s what you wanted me to believe
I dress to make you happy
I live to serve you
I am a product of my environment
I learned to accept what is given to me
Even if it is grief
I hold my arms outstretched
Hands open
Ready to catch what you give me
Knowing in the back of my mind that I don’t have to
Knowing in my heart that I must
You said I don’t know better
You said you have to think for me
For I’m everything but capable of
I am nothing other than what you say I am
But that’s not true
I’m much more
I’m taking back the power I gave to you
It wasn’t meant to be yours
I will learn how to stop loving you
As you don’t know what it means
