How do you do it…?




How do you do it…?

From time to time I ask myself how you do it.
 How can you raise your fist and watch yourself wound me, so ruthless and not feel any remorse.
 You say stuff to me, about me, or behind me.
 And you stare me in the face as you beat me like I'm a dirty rag,
Then fix you're your month to say” I love you”...

 How do you do it???

Whether criticized or agreed upon. Somewhere I can totally let down my hair. Think as I wish, Think as I can. Somewhere i can be me, and not care who knows, or sees me. No judgement, complete freedom to be me. more…
