Thrown Away
You never understood me
Only tried to control me
Pass your fears and
Prejudices
Down
To
Me.
Any sign of who I was
Who I might be
Seen as
Insult
Attack
Never
Just
Me
You took away my agency
Under the guise of
Protecting me
Instead you
Silenced
Stunted
Stifled
Me
I was more than you could allow
Too much to handle
Too loud for a girl
Too confident
It scared you
So you
Scared
Me
You took away my joy
Just so you could
Feel in control
Never caring
Thinking
How you
Took it
Away
From
Me

Well, that is the question, isn't it? What if I don't actually know who I am. I have things I do, things I like. but are they who I am? Who knows. But that's what I'm here to figure out. Will the real Aminda please stand up? (Not you Slim Shady)
