It always seemed so easy
The way you justified it all
No matter your actions
The fault was never your own
Breaking an already
All too broken boy
Because someone else
Had already broken you
You told your story
About how bad it was
As if that somehow
Made it all seem ok
Because they were monsters
To you as little boy
You thought it wasn’t your fault
That you had become one too
It always seemed so easy
The way you justified
Your sins against me
With the sins against you
perhaps they weren’t doing that…maybe they were treated so badly for so long they didn’t know or realize that they were treating you in an ill manner….you know like when kids see parents act a certain way and they grow up to mimic that way of being…im not saying that is what happened but perhaps its worth thinking about. Im sure they didn’t intend to treat you badly cus they were damaged. your too great of a person to everyone for someone to deliberately treat you badly. (Js)
I might have bought that if the excuse wasn’t always there. Always excusing actions because of actions done to you is not an excuse.
I’m sorry, do I know you?
And for the record, this particular piece was about a family member that physically, emotionally and mentally abused me as a child. Unless you are that family member, this piece has nothing to do with you.
UGHHHHH OK. LIKE IM STUPID!
