for a stepfather

found the pain today
surfaced thru the gray
try this on for size
this is my demise

what you don’t see
is what controls me
what you don’t hear
breaks me with fear

and then you decide
to fuck up my life
I won’t let you win
see what dwells within

what you don’t see
is what sets me free
what you don’t know
is how far I’ll go

never asked me why
no, I won’t deny
your one-sided view
shows it perfectly
...for you
