Role Playing

Forced to be the victim,

I play my part

You have me at your mercy

From the very start

 

I cry

I plea

You smile

Down at me

 

I beg you for forgiveness

Though I’ve done nothing wrong

You laugh and joke

That’s what you wanted all along

 

I cower

I shake

You are

In control

 

I am the perfect patsy,

Blamed for everything

You really hate me that much?

Why won’t you let me be?

 

I break

I fall

You think that

You have won

 

But then…

 

 

I’ll get it all together

And gather up myself

You’ll gasp in sheer amazement,

In contrast to yourself

 

I’ll rise up,

I will stand,

You’ll know

You’re just a man

 

 

I will draw energy

From my wounded soul

You’ll begin looking like

An old and ugly fool

 

I will leave

I will thrive

You’ll see you’re

Not “all that”

 

I’ll be stronger than

I’ve ever been before

You’ll think I’m all talk

Until I’m out the door

 

I will fly

I will soar

You’ll wish that

YOU were more!
