Don't Play the Victim

This is for my roommate and cousin. One finally stood up for herself and got out of the harmful relationship! Hallelujah!

The leech sucking life

From your beautiful soul

Is a frightful sight,

Painful to behold.

Save yourself, just run

From this horror, the scene

Where you are the victim,

He licks your blood clean.

All want to save you,

To break through the bars

Of which he imprisons

You and your heart.

But no bullets or swords

Can break through your cell.

You sit inside with key,

Yet you don't leave your hell!
