Wrong Gift

By Katie Pope

By Katie PopePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

Believed to be a friend

Taking me to new places

At every turn

Discovering new sensations

Helping me to bury the pain and shame

Yet you have turned

Becoming a monster within

Stealing my freedom, in slaving me

Creating a craziness within

Possessing in a way no other could ever do

Making me forget,

All that’s important to this life

Causing me to destroy all around

Taking me to unseen places

Creating a person never known

Taking everything dreamed of

Yet helping me bury the pian and shame

Helping me to forget

We continue the path unseen

Thinking of only one

Thinking of you

I fight to win

Beating the monster never thought
