One more piece:
DEDICATION:
"For the ones called weak
when they were simply never trained."
"Walls built so damn high"
They wrapped me in cotton,
called it love.
Built walls so damn high,
even the winds couldn’t touch me.
“Stay inside,” they said.
“The world is cruel.”
So I did.
I fucking did.
Now my hands shake at open doors
and they look at me
like I’m broken glass.
Funny, isn’t it?
You raised someone in a bubble, then
spit words like lazy, soft, unprepared.
You fed me comfort like poison
& now you’re mad that I’m addicted.
You held the knife
& cut the world away,
then asked why I didn’t bleed bravely.
I never learned how to fall
because you never let me jump.
I never learned how to fight
because you fought for me.
So don’t stand there, disappointed,
asking why I’m afraid of the dark.
You’re the ones
who never let me see it.
I’m not fucking weak.
I’m just untrained.
There’s a fucking difference.
And I swear—
I’ll step out.
I’ll stumble.
I’ll get bruised & fucked over & lost.
But DON’T YOU DARE
shame me
for surviving the shelter
you BUILT
& then decided
to set it on fire.
