Scapegoat.
They've been around for ages,
A person or thing that takes on life's challenges,
He takes on our anger and fear and lives with them because
We can't.
A catalyst.
Our feelings need an escape,
They need a vessel to enter and wreck to pieces.
Me.
My words were chained to my tongue,
My feelings corked by your anger,
And my mentality belittled by your inability to recognize my ability.
A scapegoat.
A catalyst.
A vessel.
A child.
Me.
