growing up
I learned that the hand that feeds you
Bites you too.
Growing up
I learned to suffocate my cries
For your
Growing up
I learned to turn the blade upon myself
To see you smile
Growing up
I learned to bend and twist into new shapes
To be what you needed
But
Growing up
I learned the hand that feeds you
Will bite you anyways
And Growing up
I learned that to reach for your hand again
Meant to also be bitten
