M's Poetry

She Finally Left

I know that you're sorry
I know you've been drunk all week
I know that you did not mean to
so I just excuse it
cuz it's the thing to do
and I know you are a loser
but I need someone to compare my life to
to make me feel better, if only but a little while
until you hit me again and leave nasty bruises

I doubt very much you even hear
anything I say to you
What's that on your shoulder?
oh that big chip that always accompanies you
as you enter every room
it's there before you are

I will love you even though you won't
I will care even when my minds says don't
I am addicted to this cycle
slave to your thoughts, your own playground
before I realized I gave it all up for you
and you re payed me with hurt and empty promises
and just like the times before
I stay...thinking I can't get no better
I stay...thinking change
I stay...because I lost my self-worth
I leave in a hearse......
