The Nothing you promised

I was blinded by your site
Torched by your words
Abused by your hands..
Day in and Day out I sat and wondered, What's going to happen next..
Lost in your lies I slowly destructed Dwindling down until I was nothing.
You bruised my ego
and took my trust as people mocked me with disgust..
Hated by many from all the lies
Blame by others just for the fun
Slowly I faded into nothing
That Nothing that you always told me I would be..
Locked in a box Keys thrown away
I sank to the bottom of a empty pit.
Knocking hard I screamed to be free
twisting and turning trying to escape your wrath..
In this empty box I was placed
In this empty box I made my place..
I am nothing....That nothing you told me I would be..

When I sit down, I start to write whatever comes to my mind then I try my best to transform it into something that express what others think of me. Reading this poem I know that I am more than what people clam I am.
