Can’t breathe.
Every step monitored,
Every look dissected,
Every thought examined.
Every time a new idea
Germinates,
Ruthlessly eradicated.
Every time a decision made,
Second-guessed, derided.
If it’s not desirable to him,
If it’s not his thoughts,
His dreams,
His desires,
It has no value.
Hopeless.
Nothing done right,
Everything wrong,
Every time.
Smothered.
