Painful Days

The same old routine
Every single day,
Sitting here in silence
With no words to say.

So much tension
Fills the air,
Causing terrible pain
And deep despair.

How did we end
Up this way,
And let it all
Just slip away?

You're so angry,
Such cruel words you say,
Lashing out towards me
Seems to be your only way.

But in the process,
Causing me to feel so low,
Eventually sooner or later,
With my suitcase, I'll go.
