It's Not About You
Poem
Dedicated to my illness
So much for privacy.
So much for being allowed to hurt.
So much for secrets and sincerity.
Its all so I feel like dirt.
If only I could runaway,
I want to runaway.
Can't hide the way I feel,
For being scrutinised in every way.
Can't be allowed silence to deal,
With the things I feel every day.
If only I could runaway,
I want to runaway.
Don't you see I can't be,
I can't be myself with you.
While all you do is push me,
To be someone who does what you want me to.
If only I could runaway,
I want to runaway.
I hate the way you try to make
Me feel like it's all about you.
It's nothing to do with you but you still take
All the importance and opportunity to be you.
If only I could runaway,
I want to runaway.
Why can't I just have some time
To come to terms with things?
But no, you want the answers but they're not mine.
I don't have anything to say to you about these things.
If only I could runaway,
I want to runaway.
I get it now, you're never wrong.
You need to understand.
But so do I and I can't until I get strong.
But you won't give me the space or a helping hand.
If only I could runaway,
I want to runaway.
I was the one who felt it all.
I was the one who cried and wanted to die.
You could never know how I tried only to fall;
To constantly be scrutinised and cry.
If only I could runaway,
I want to runaway.
All the pain I went through,
I survived it and now I'm left with confusion.
Confusion I need to work through,
But I can't do that with your intrusion.
If only I could runaway,
I want to runaway.
Why can't you leave me alone?
To sort it out, then I'll tell you
The answers that you need when I'm done.
But until then, it's not about you.
The End
