PLEASER

Where do you go?

When they put you down so much?

Where do you go, to just be,

Human?

Pleasing,

Pleaser, oh God be pleased,

she hates me,

she has a foul mouth,

I just wanna please,

to prove,

my worth.

Disappointment,

haunted my dreams and clawed my heart out,

he’s gonna be furious,

I don’t want to disappoint,

Please don’t be disappointed.

or I might give myself more and break,

to the point of crashing,

and they can each have a piece.

Exploit it,

take what they want, and make of me want they 

want,

because what am I, if not,

a product to please.
