The Victim

A victim is what you claim to be

Believing everyone is the enemy

Constantly shooting arrows your way,

Digging knives deep

Enough to cause agony. You are no black sheep

For you run and hide from pain you self-inflict.

Going and hiding makes it

Harder to cope. You not only hide from supposed enemies, but friends too.

I pitied you and offered sanctuary free from

Judgment. Nearly a year and I find

Kindness taken advantaged. Isolation

Linger and grows in each

Minute and unspoken word. You claim you did

No wrong- you had no

Option. Had to escape the supposed

Problems you can only solve by

Quitting and hiding away again. I cannot keep

Running after you. I refuse to

Stoop down to your level. Your hatred has become too

Tiresome for my soul to handle. I can no longer

Understand your actions, your point of

View towards those you hate and claim hate you in return. I don’t know

Where to go from here. I cannot continue to ignore the true

X-rays of your ugly heart. So go ahead and wither away, but

You cannot take me with you. For I am free of this

Zigzagging labyrinth once called friendship.
