Attack Me

[Guest InkSickVegan]

I mindlessly walk into the trap

So thoughtless, so unable to defend myself

A war starts, and I am unarmed

I?m torn and ripped apart

My only defense is weak, but their attempts are appreciated

Like a coward I run

I always run

But my bleeding ears

Are not closed off

From the words being causally thrown

Around in a pointless tirade

A tirade that goes back and forth

The pendulum that never stops

It never stops

Until the pieces are so small

And shattered

That you can?t put them back together

I?m forced to return to the battle

But I?m not mentally stable to fight

Anymore

There is no winning

The tyrant always wins

No matter what

Shut down

I begin to build up my wall

My shield

In a futile hope that I will deflect these words being fired at me

But it is only a thin wall of pretend that I cling onto

And these words impale me

Holding onto memories that tell me I?m normal

And I?m not the problem

Are washed away

I?m tainted and trashed

Whoever was on my side is now gone

The ride home is a rewind of the events that have transpired

The war rages on, even when we have left the battle field

Left behind is my only believer

It never stops

I stand alone

I stand defeated

That's really good. I pick my favorite poems by how well i can relate to them, and I've got to say, this is now one of my favorites.
