• In this prison, I am trapped.
    I can't go anywhere, without you there telling me I did something wrong.
    Forever I am looking back, wondering what you'll say next.
    It's maddening!
    You're like an alien life form hovering about in your UFO, scrutinizing my every move, studying me watching me,
    waiting until I do something against your liking,
    and then you'll strike, just like a venomous cobra.
    You won't scream, just demean.
    Subtely, almost invisibly, you'll beat me down.
    Others from the outside won't know a thing,
    but I'll know different.
    My soul is being sucked out and being replaced with yours.
    I see now it was your intention all along to turn me into you.

    Ya, well guess what?!
    You haven't won yet!
    I will deflect you
    All your cruel words and intentions will float in one ear and out the other just as quick as they came.
    I won't become you
    no matter how much you try.
    And it's something you'll never understand entirely.
    I guard myself so well in spite of your words
    so go ahead, keep it up, I'll just ignore everything.
    And when I'm gone, I wonder how you'll survive, without someone there to criticize?
