One More Time

Tell me I'm not good enough
One more time.
See what happens.

Tell me my talents are useless
One more time.
Watch me vanish.

Show me that I am small,
One more time.
See how quickly I will cry.

Belittle me until there is nothing left of me.
One more time.
See me get smaller.

Behead the talent that I do have
One more time.
Watch me continue not to try.

Disown me for something I can't control
One more time.
Watch me leave.

Beg me to come back
One more time.
See how quickly I return.

Start your accusations
One more time.
Say goodbye.

Tell me I am lazy and selfish
One more time.
I'm not comin' back.

She'll be the perfect one. You don't need me.
One last time.
I'm gone.
