Torment

December 7, 2018

I...I'm...

hurt.

 

I have been denied happiness and the source of my happiness...

because of them.

 

They think it's fun to take what isn't theirs

and view themselves as superior for what they do

to people like me

...and I've grown to hate people because of it.

 

I was tired of being deprived of happiness and joy,

of people bringing me down because

they see me as inferior.

 

I wanted

Revenge.

 

But now...

I don't know what to feel anymore.

 

I've never tuly felt welcomed

among everyone else

knowing that people like me

have been treated horribly in the past.

 

They treated us as if we were

 

failed experiments

defects

abominations

monsters

 

I'm just so desperate for freedom

from the pain and fear i suffer from.

 

Desperate to be rid of these painful feeling and thoughts

i struggle to cope with

Desperate to feel loved and welcomed,

treated like a human

Desperate to be

free

from

this

mental

torment.
