Stand up for yourself!
Yet you punish me when I do against you
Be strong!
Yet I’m constantly torn down
Be independent!
Yet you won’t let me go
You don’t need that boy!
Yet I do because without him I’d have no idea what love is
Don’t apologize so much!
Yet if I don’t you won’t speak to me
Its okay to be human!
Yet I shed a tear and your only words of “comfort” are ‘chill out’ and ‘here we go again’.
Its okay to be wrong; everyone can be!
Apparently everyone except you
Stop caring what people think!
So I stopped caring what you think
Think for yourself!
So I learned and formed my own morals and opinions that are vastly different from yours
Don’t be so nice!
So I decided I will be even kinder
Everything you demand of me will be done out of spite. For the rest of my life because of the damage you’ve done. Yes. You’ve given me so much and for those necessities I’m so grateful. But you’ve also fucked me up beyond repair. I will be more than you ever expected. I will be kinder. I will be gentler. I will be better than you.
