Now Listen, You!

Now listen, you!

I know you’re only

trying to keep me

safe or stop me

from hurting again

or whatever but

you’re only causing

me more pain because

I am NOT weak and

I DO deserve love and

I DO deserve happiness

and I’ve had enough of

your doubts and lies

your slanderous tries

to do me down and

keep me down and

you know I’ll always

listen to you but

you are not always

right you know and

you cannot control me

anymore!

Or her. I'm not sure it isn't a'mother-figure.' Either way, it's a strong little poem that reads fast and well.

That's telling him then!
Would have loved some more of these couplets

and I’ve had enough of
your doubts and lies
your slanderous tries
