CLEO / SUPER-GIRL

father said that i was this

awful, disobedient, ugly

rat clothed in 

lies.

he rotted and

poisoned my mind

along with his own 

existence.

he shaped my being and added

new scars internally and

externally, perhaps with a 

wish

that if I perished enough I would

simply disappear.

i will not vanish,

i will not will him to vanish.

vanishing from this

world is inevitable,

all we want is to

take control of our

lives.

we 

can't.

i wish to prolong

my existence for as

long as 

possible.

i will never wish for my

demons 

to vanish.

every person deserves to

experience another

day in this

world,

even if all they have done is

spread poison.

every person desires 

to leave their mark on the

world.

if you have left nothing

in your wake, then

what was the 

point

of living at all?

marks must be

made,

even if they are for the

wrong reasons.

damage is only made

so that it may be

remembered by the

victim.

damage is the one 

scar

that may never

heal.

it will always be 

remembered, it is the

strongest

mark.

no one 

remembers the 

angels. only the

devils.

no one wishes to be forgotten.

that is why we must forgive

but never forget.
