Literature Text

I fell, you helped me up, but pushed me back down.
I lost my way, you found me, but left me alone in a strange place.
I reached out to you for help, you offered your hand, then pulled it away.
I followed your rules, you applauded my effort, then wrote new ones.
I was sinking in quicksand, you pulled me out with a stick, then beat me with it.
I was stabbed in the back, you pulled out the knife, then plunged it into my heart.
I decided to quit, you begged me to stay, then fired me.
I stood at the edge, you gave me reason not to jump,
then you picked me up,
and threw me off.
