How do you disrupt me so?
With what words you use that injure me
And every cranny criticized
I’m stuck here and I’m compromised
And angry.
I can’t belong to these anymore
And I must leave in my own way
Finding somewhere that knows less
About me
And who I am.
Though
Because I need to
I want not to
And can’t make me say
Goodbye to what you
Bring out of me.
You are, I think, my best
Of all
But not end
Of all
And there will be more
Out there for me someday
Than you’ve been
Able to offer.
Waiting here
With doors slipped shut
And windows locked
Unknowingly
Has prevented more
I think
Than we thought;
For me at least;
And you still get yours.
