Why won't she ever shut up?
Shouting obscenities and lies.
I'm beginning to think she's right.
No matter how happy I try to be she's always there.
Hey, don't forget you're fat!
Uh, in case I haven't told you in a while, you're dumb!
Remember what he did? How can you still be so naive?
Have you looked at your face lately, ew!
You think your little family is cute well you are still a failure.
You will never be good enough!
You think he will marry you, HA, keep waiting, old maid.
Whispering demon, clouding my brain.
Bubbling up my throat ready to enter the world.
Taking a deep breath, I swallow her down.
She's quiet,
For now.
