through the looking glass
By silverwolf
patience is a virtue of mine, it's true
but I lose it all when it comes to you
you know precisely what to do and say
to make my shell just drop away
your complaints cut straight through
regarding everything wrong that I do
criticizing and not seeing my view
as to what exactly I have to go through
my depression keeps me locked away
your remarks only make me want to stay
as you don't hold back on what you say
I'm a time bomb, ticking right away
all that you want to correct in me
is exactly what I learned to be
from the one who raised a child alone
with only your approval to condone
I have portrayed the mirror I was
and have reflected everything I must
I should not be berated for your view
I have reflected everything from you
