Broken Marriage

Have you ever hated someone so much
That when you see them
You feel as though your whole world
Has been turned upside down
I wish, I could explain 
How I truly feel but I can't
So I write these lyrics
Because it makes me feel right
We are forever in each others face 
His presence causes me too much pain
We use to love one another 
But now he makes me hurt
He stands there and watches me cry
Being wed to him is like being on a deserted island
I am always alone
What do I have to do
We argue, fuss and fight
Our close friends say we should separate
We always say things we don't mean
Maybe it’s my fault our relationship has come to an end
He likes the way I hurt
I know he wants me to snap
But I am not going too
I am not afraid yesterday I was his fool 
Today I am leaving.
