Deserve Better

I don't know why I stayed when I knew I deserved better. You made me feel as though I was overreacting, and selfish. You said I don't drown in an ocean I stick my face in a puddle. You say the waves that crash into me are only cars driving over puddles. You told me I was faking it. I believed you and coped with alcohol and drugs. I got rid of you. I still feel like I'm faking, overreacting, lying, like I don't deserve better.
