Do Not Come To Me

 


Do not come to me with your pain anymore,
I will make it thunder, I will make it pour.
I have no interest in lending my ear,
Your cries will drown, they’ll disappear.

Keep your shame, your sin, your lies,
For I’m no longer the one who tries
To understand, to soothe, to heal.
I’ve carried enough—let me feel.

I do not want to play the role of mediator,
Nor listen to your constant judgment later.
I have zero desire to judge or control,
All of this drains the depths of my soul.

I am not your mother, nor your friend,
Nor a shoulder for your heart to bend.
I’m done with your sorrow, done with your strife,
It is draining the very breath of life.

You see, I’ve carried all of you for too long,
Your burdens weigh me down, I can’t stay strong.
I don’t want to watch your endless shows,
Just to get along with the world you know.

I don't wish to see your pain displayed,
Replicated on screens, endlessly replayed.
I’m done with empathy, with trying to see
The broken pieces of your worldview—let me be free.

So save your soul, do some good,
Don’t come to me, I’m misunderstood.
I no longer wish to bear your load,
It’s time I walked my own road.

Amazon Worker

Hey there Amazon Worker, Do you think you pulled one over? Mocked my vulnerable side, only to protect your fake pride. I can’t fathom why I ever asked you to pamper and protect. Your wealth was never my concern, yet you watched my trust burn. As I began to share how I felt, you made a snide remark, hitting below the belt. Do you think I care if people change the way they stare? I’m no longer trying to hide; the girl you knew has long died. It’s amusing now that you said I remind you of your mother— What kind of devil hurts the daughter of another? Everyone says to forgive and forget since you were only a child. I would if you didn’t parade your weak masculinity, born of Rothschild. Your false grandeur can’t erase the damage done, I’ve found my strength and my journey’s just begun. If you thought you were good for my image, Know this: my growth surpasses your limits. I’m a woman whose name you can’t tear from the page, And I will stand tall, owning my own stage. ~ Kanika Kau...

Not So Bhavya

Oh, drop the good guy act, You pretended to care, that's a fact. Someone who was hiding their own shame, Called me psycho and crazy, how lame. You tried to charm me with your coffer, Brushed off my pain, saying, “Stop it, or else I won’t buy a lightsaber.” You took all you could and then asked what I have to offer? Funny how you wanted to burn it all down when you lost your maker, But when I cried and screamed, called me a big faker. You claimed to know love, but never took the time, To understand my heart, my rhythm, my rhyme. You wrapped me in darkness while claiming the light, But all you offered was a hollow delight. Now your shadows fade, and I choose to ignite, I’ll weave my own stories, reclaiming my flight.
