You Need...

YOU told me you loved me YOU shared all your hopes and fears YOU spoke of your goals YOU make me shed many tears YOU were once so open and honest YOU did so many things right from the start YOU seemed very sincere YOU have since broken my heart YOU promised me the world YOU gave me reasons to believe YOU allowed me to spread my wings YOU make me feel like you will only deceive YOU stole my heart away YOU used to be full of fun and joy YOU made me feel like I was special YOU have me thinking I was just a toy YOU made love to me, and I gave you children YOU eventually made me your spouse YOU cared about my feelings once upon a time YOU treat me today as if I’m a louse YOU need to treat me with respect and honor YOU need to quit causing anymore pain and strife YOU need to remember that I am your wife YOU need to go back to the man that you once were YOU need to stop lying to you and to me YOU need to realize its bringing much grief YOU need to stop and think that I don’t have to be IN YOUR LIFE….
