Old Me *

                                    

                                          
"Monster!",
                          
They screamed,
                          
"Murder!",
                          
They say,
                          
"Die!",
                          
They plea,
                          
"Please, I don't want to be this way,"
                          
"I refuse",
                          
They claim,
                          
"It's your fault.",
                          
They accuse,
                          
"Don't be a baby",
                          
They taunt,
                          
"Shut up, and be useful."
                          
They command,
                          
"Do what I say",
                          
Because in this life,
                          
You don't matter anyway.
                          
They said,
                          
But don't worry,
                          
That little girl is dead,
                          
How old was she?
                          
Just a teen,
                          
She didn't even live life,
                          
Up to 17,
                          
Oh, but that's okay,
                          
She was abused,
                          
Hurt,
                          
Hit,
                          
This left them amused,
                          
So, next time,
                          
Watch what you say,
                          
Because that little girl,
                          
Was the old me.
