Crush

I’m not prey
To be tamed
You’re not gonna run me down
And lock your jaws around me
You’re just bait
Admit
We’re not kids
I know how you fall in love with imitation
Forcing every situation
Waiting for your line
You caught a bitter sign of weakness
Even now, healing fast
I am crushed beneath this
I went numb
Have I won?
When every smile is laced
With drinks and wasted time
Would you run?
Too bright to see
Your light in front of me
Just wishing I was blind
Blessed by what you bought
Learn from what you’ve taught
Take your confident display
And throw your doubt away
