n0t a waste 0f space.

please stop

stop yelling

and screaming

and tearing me down

stop talking

and walking

over my mouth.

stop repeating

and listing

the same reasons why,

I'm awful

and selfish

a failure in life.

stop expecting

and waiting

for me to subdue

stop thinking

and wishing

I was a miniature you

stop lying

and saying

you love me so much

stop screaming

and apologizing

to cover up.

stop running

in circles

of the same old fights

stop pretending

cause we know

you're always right

stop thinking

I hate you

putting me on a shelf

listen to me

I hate myself.

I'm sorry

I know

I'm not who you want

but I'm trying

so please

could you just stop
