I'M Finished With You

THIS IS THE TRADITIONAL CINQUAIN WAY OF WRITING.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Hateful
You are to me
Your abuse is blazing
And I'm tired of your hell raising
Please stop!

Spiteful
Are the cruel words
That you inflict on me
Why won't you ever let me be?
Please quit!

Worthless
I am to you
You love to tell me that
While in the middle of combat
Stop it!

I'm gone
And no longer
Will I let you hurt me
With a whole-hearted guarantee
Goodbye!

sometimes it is hard to walk away, but if someone can not love and truly respect you, then they don't deserve you, but you have to decide that enough is enough, this is truly a write that can identify with, thanks for all of your comments, hope things get better for you, take care D-nyce

Wow! This piece is quite expressive and actually drew the line in the sand. There are times when actions such as this have to take place. One must stand up for what is right. I like your thoughts on the subject. There is a song by the Beetles which states "We can work it out!" Great job! ~Joseph
