Abstract Pyramids

When you sleep

It's hard to forgive
When you keep hurting
It's hard to keep my dignity
When you demand my clothes
To cover your nakedness
When you strip

It makes you uncomfortable
When I am human
It hurts you
When I speak
So I cry silently in the dark
When you sleep

Is it wrong to weaken
When I'm stretched to my limit
Is it wicked to give in
When I can't find myself
Here I stand naked and vulnerable
When will you see

Or are you pleased
When I'm broken
Are you made strong
When I am weakened
Will you even remember me
When you're done
