DISTANT MEMORIES

BULLY

Every day felt like hours.
Day after wretched day, having confidence in himself felt like a sin, and every time a smile found a way unto his face he'd immediately swipe it off. A boy with the potential to absolutely change this world with his unparalleled mentality, but he will never have the chance to because he's been led astray like a sheep Led away from its herd by tempting words of self destruction.
Destroyed mentally, convinced he was a ticking time bomb counting down to his own demise, marking the most memorable moments In his life by his biggest mistakes not his biggest accomplishments.
Labeled off as sour-mouthed asshole for the tedious insults he spoke, flying out of his mouth like daggers straight to the hearts of the people he cared about the most, but what else could he do for this was the only form of "affection" he had ever learned.
No one spits out these many hateful words with such ease more than people who hate themselves the most.
What do you do when your biggest bullies are your own parents, when they're the doctors dissecting your brains and implanting these false insecurities that you think belong to you or anywhere near you?!
What do you do then... what can you besides break under the pressure.
