Half Hearted

Cold words of ignorance slip from your tongue
And I proceed to fall
Something you take so lightly
Pushes me into the darkness
I stumble
I crumble
While you stand tall
Controlling
Belittling one who is already trapped

You speak insensitively like I am
Inconsequential
Unaware that immense damage is done
That somehow the carelessness you spew
Affects how my mind runs
And I wish I could run from you when I hear
She
Yet I am stuck
Hands tied
By someone who cannot imagine
How thoroughly I was
Trapped
Before they came along.
