My villain


You always said you loved me after every episode Like if the declaration of love would heal my bruises erase my pain and dry the tears that were falling down my face but it never did. If you love me why do keep on hurting me If this is love why does it hurt so much this are the thoughts that were never put to words instead I whisper back the words that always makes me flinch like being hit by hot metal. I love you too I whisper back hoping it would be enough. You did to me what winter does to trees Strip me bare, naked and empty You left me shivering in the cold A shell of the person I was before Did you enjoy it daddy Did you like seeing us weak and afraid Did you like bending me to your will Did you like hearing me cry and begging for mercy
