Feathers burnt to ash

I once flew
Great distances vast places
I had wings
I had freedom
But you came along
And clipped my
Once beautiful wings that carried me
To sun and back
You made me icarus
Melting and burning me till I can't leave
I plummeted to the ground and you acted as if
Nothing happened
You clipped my wings and sent me falling tugging me back to the nest
I was so desperate to leave
You convinced me that it would get better
You told me they would change
But they never did
And you act as if I'm a shoulder for you to cry in and tell me your loyal to me
And the next moment you are taking
My feathers
And
Plucking
Plucking
Until you
Were satisfied with the pain you caused
The blood you spilled
And when you were finished
You hugged me and said sorry just to
Protect your reputation
And I was naive
I forgave you
Every
Single
Time
But it never meant anything
You took my wings
For your own personal gain
And for once I wish you wold quit
The act and
Finally show everyone
Who you truly are
But you never do
You smile and hide behind my
Melted feathers
You use me as a shield
And one day you will
Pay for clipping my wings
For keeping me trapped here
But for now I will let you believe
You have power over me
Cause even if I don't want to admit it
You do
