Internal Conflict

My thoughts of you turn in my head. How do I move on? When you did so quick? I want to move on, I really do. But God, you. You haunt me. You tie my wrists. I want to want him. But you fight my fists. Beat me, Bruise me, Call me unworthy. He thinks I’m worthy. But you once did too. Liar, Liar. Why can’t I just love? You turn my mind inside out, And beat me, my love. You will consume my thoughts, and make me fear him. He can’t be you. No, he wouldn’t hurt me like you did.
