Contempt
Frozen under your cold stare
As your eyes calculate my next move
Planting me to the ground in a dare
As if challenging me to a senseless duel
I feel the mountains of despair
As they almost collapse in on the room
A lesson that I've been taught in care
Is to never fight a battle that I might lose
You have paralyzed me, I was unaware
You have molded me into a fuse
I'm now a shell of empty air
With no armor to protect my wounds
I have agonized silently beyond compare
As I obediently followed your leading cues
You have broken your toy beyond repair
Ordered me to become a deathly muse
I fought in passion and now I declare
Your strings have been cut, they are of no use
I conquer the pressure of your gaze
Fully aware of what I must choose
I took the first step on my own affair
Leaving you behind, shocked and confused
