~You Aren’t Listening ~
Chapter 2


They didn’t do anything
I didn’t do anything
It s not me
It’s you

I don’t want to hear you anymore
I don’t want to live this way anymore
I don’t want to live by your constant lies of insecurity
I don’t want to live with your curse on my back
Your curse of anxiety

I want to see the beauty of being your daughter again
I want to see the beauty of life with you again
I want to see the beauty of you again

I want to feel heard
I want to be understood
I want to at least feel like everything you want me to be
I want to feel like I shouldn’t want to flee
I want to feel like time isn’t running out on me
I want the walls not to thrust in on me
But ill never know
I’ll never know
Until you start listening

Soon they will make legendary stories about your mask
Yes, your mask of uncertainty
Your mask to hide your secrets
Secrets that haunt your past
What you do is let it control your future
When you become a parent the child becomes your future
I am your future

I am going in circles
I have your agony as my shadow
I have your past as my clinging little pet
I have your mask to put on my face because soon enough I’m going to need it
But for now let’s understand that if your child voice isn’t going through to you
If listening to me isn’t going to help, what will?
You aren’t listening
