fuck your idols

i wanna wake up,
waiting on my dream
to reach its end,
but this nightmare
never stops its cycle,
at every turn,
you think it can’t
get any worse,
but each day,
newly inflicted pain,
right when you feel
you can get away,
it gets louder,
your trust is taken
by the ones
you once looked up to.
what good is it
to have idols
when all of them
are predators?
preying,
making it unsafe,
then they run away,
stay quiet
when the eyes
are all on them,
i don’t care what God
you’re praying to,
no matter what you say,
can’t look the same way,
i’m ashamed that
i ever idolized you,
you were once the loudest,
now it’s radio silence,
there’s no defense
you can make
to sway me this time,
get out of here,
never come back,
i don’t wanna hear
a word from you again.

fuck your idols.
