You know me better
better than you thought
you thought that you lost me
you lost me in the dark
in the dark I was a spark
a spark that never gave up
never gave up trying
trying and surviving
surviving the chaos
the chaos you put me in
you put me into a cage
a cage with starving demons
demons that tore me into pieces
pieces that are now lost
lost in life forever
forever and even longer.

"My tears need a minute to find the edges of my face. If you'll please excuse me." The sarcasm stabbed into Juliana’s heart. Antonia glared at her from the pit of the Lyceum as her student fought to hold back tears that had nothing to do with the pain in her fingers. “You’re better than this, again.”

Super desolate and hard-hitting, great work here.
I enjoyed reading this one, sad as it is. Perhaps "gape" is a typo in your line "a spark that never gape up"
