Monster and victim
I was so afraid of becoming you that I blocked you out.
I was so terrified that I chose to ignore your existence
All these voices in my head repeating over and over again that I will become what you are.
A monster.
I don't know how I can stop these voices in my head.
Repeating monster monster monster
How can this happen when I ignore that you were ever even in my life.
Do you know what they say about people like me.
They call me a victim.
They call me broken.
They call you monster.
They call you broken.
You broke me by thinking maybe I can fix myself by ruining her.
I am so terrified Of ruining someone else that I avoid people.
I avoid them.
I don't want to be a monster like you.
I will not be your broken plaything. I don't know how I let you dig yourself deep in my skull.
I will not become a monster.
I will be the best I can be.
I will ignore the voices in my head.
I will no longer be a victim.
I will now and forever be a warrior
