My Utter Serenity

You think you deserve this, deserve what you want,

Well you don’t. You think you’re better then me.

That my utter serenity towards you is normal,

But that’s never true, something you need to see.



I hate you, can’t you see it? Don’t you notice?

That I love you so much, it hurts that you’re right.

And I’m not worth it, worth you and your time,

For me to be normal is to scream in the night.



Cut me with your jagged words, the pain of death,

Overtaking me and welcoming me to a conscious sleep.

Which I don’t believe in, for to believe it is to believe you,

When all the while my heart in yours; you keep.



Take me to a place where it will no longer hurt me,

But no, you’d rather watch me suffer with the pain.

The pain of knowing you’re going to be there forever,

The pain of knowing im someone who you love to hate



You’re right! I know that! I know I’m worthless,

That I deserve nothing, you tell me that enough times.

For it not be true, it is; I pushed you to this, I made you

What you are and the ropes which in me it binds.



So thank you why not! For it seems the right thing to do,

It’s insane but true, because what you are is right and what...

What you say is right, you never wanted me I know that,

After all you like to remind me by saying nothing at all.



Those looks, those pure looks of loathing, you throw me,

At ease like its something you’re used to doing and I suppose,

You are aren’t you, used to me; used to this, really… im sorry,

What more can I say, but to tell you. You must be right.
