I Love You

I love you
Your cruelty has broken me
It's broken me time after time
You just watched as I cried
But I loved you
Just to speak
To say-No More
Has taken a lifetime
And I still love you
I can't breathe 
I cried out in shame 
In fear that I hurt you
Because I do love you
But I can't go back
The pain and the manipulation
It will never change
But I will always love you
I never meant to be a burden
I'm so so sorry daddy
But this is goodbye
I love you
