him (my worst fear)

it's easy
plain and simple
you thought I was invisible
that I just ceased to be
but did you ever see me?
no turning away
am I here to stay?
being with you was plain hell
why I stayed, no one could tell
it's easy to explain
you got high off my pain
you used me
abused me
and now I can't get out
no one heard me shout
locked up so alone
with nowhere to call home
I was just a kid
you seeked and I hid
I was only 17
do you even know what that means?
were you searching for fame?
because you had nothing to gain
with your sick little games
I only did what I knew how
and now?
I can't get out
nowhere to run
nowhere to hide
why can't I just die?
