you want to break me

by Bobbie - Scorpio

lately
i haven’t forced the silence
nor forced the opinions
though you say
they are valued
i fail to believe you care
that you take sympathy
in what i say
when i open my mouth
and your reply
merely apathy
discourages me
you must want to break me
decidedly though
it’s far too late
for the sun to rise
me to begin
you’ve stopped me
mid-idea
and i refuse to shatter again

Reason for writing:

    Ha! My entire life is the basis of this poem. All right, so I'm only sixteen....
