If I Could Kill You, I Would (Ana)

by Jenni Marie   Jan 21, 2010


Now I know where I'm headed
Catapulting right back into my past
Thought that I'd become stronger
Yet these feelings remain unsurpassed

For it seems no matter what I do
Just can't escape her niggling voice
Unhappy tears are pooling in these eyes
This should be the one time to rejoice

Yet, she sits here cruelly taunting me
Fat jibes running through my head
Trying to erase her painful words
But, it's my dignity she brutally shreds

Wishing only that I could go back in time
And have the strength to kick her out the door
For now she's become far stronger than I am
And my painful pleas she simply ignores

And now with someone else to think about
This inner battle has become twice as hard
Fighting to put this little one before her
But remaining just as scarred

Is there no end to this constant war?
Will she ever take pity, and finally leave
All I want is a healthy, happy child
But it's becoming such a struggle to achieve
