"Not Supposed To", Knox Cloud original poem
(TW: this is a poem about SA. Censored for socials 🙄)
I'm not supposed to talk
Because that ruins his image.
But I'm not supposed to stay quiet
Because then I'm helping him get away with it.
I'm not supposed to be afraid
Because I'm strong and a fighter.
I'm not supposed to be confident
Because I should be ashamed.
I'm not supposed to like s3x
Because how can I like it after?
I'm not supposed to hate s3x
Because I need to move on; it's natural.
I'm not supposed to feel hurt
Because there's an expiration on pain.
I'm not supposed to be happy
Because clearly I am only that one thing.
I'm not supposed to be angry
Because forgiveness is better.
I'm not supposed to live my life
Because I almost destroyed his.
I'm not supposed to speak out
Because no one wants to hear it.
I'm not supposed to think about it
Because then I am reliving it.
I'm not supposed to joke
Because it's a serious issue.
I'm not supposed to take it seriously
Because it happened so long ago.
I
Am so tired
Of being told what I'm “supposed” to do.
