Done
I loved you SO much
That I STOPPED loving ME
I gave you my ALL
Yet you STILL couldn't see
Who I really am
And what Im all about
How down for you I was
You were ALWAYS full of doubt
Not seeing how good I was
You always called me names
Tramp & **** & WHORE
Were words you threw in rage
A rage that was UNJUST
That I DID NOT deserve
When ever you were mad
You stabbed me with your words
Always pissed off @ something
You made up in your head
There were MANY times I cried @ night
As we lay there in our bed
But you didn't even care
You were slowly KILLIN me
The more you held me down
The less that I could breath
You took away my pride
I felt less than who I am
You put me down & when I cried
You didn't give a damn
And then the day you broke me down
You destroyed all that I had
You laughed in my face @my pain
It made you happy that I was sad
I opened my eyes and took a look
At who and what Id become
I straightened my shoulders &lifted my head
The day had finally come
It was over I was done
I can do bad on my own
I turned my back and walked away
And left you all alone
And when YOU cried & screamed MY name
You begged me not to go
I blocked it out and caught my breath
Then I walked out the door........
