Do you realize why
I flatter myself?
Can you see that
As I beat you down,
I’m asking for your help?
I’ve got no worth,
Nothing sets me apart,
Except this caustic wit.
I pick you apart,
And kick where it hurts,
So I can feel power.
I just need to feel
Important for a while.
Be assured,
When I go home,
I curl up like you,
And cry myself to sleep
Because I never meant
To hurt you so.
I only wanted
To feel better.
