Afraid

I'm sorry I'm so scared of you.

But what else do you expect me to do?

Your words and actions marked my soul and body.

Of course, I never told a single word to anybody.

You say you love me and that you'd never truly hurt me.

But why did you scare me and scar me to the point I couldn't see?

This isn't how a parent's love supposed to be.

It's supposed to be full of joy and oh so free.

But you damaged me beyond repair, my body and soul too.

You left me no choice, this is the only thing I can do.

"Devil, I have summoned you to barter.

That with my death, my mother can have a better daughter."
