You pour your toxicity over us like gasoline, threatening to set us alight, willing us to burn.

What you don’t know is; we’re fireproof.

I knew this day would come, smelt the fumes of your lies before they enveloped us.

They are but innocent lambs perched on your every vile word, ready to take it as gospel.

I’ve made them as resilient as you forced me to be and one day they will see you for who you truly are and know all I did was protect them.
