The End of the Road

You're pretty and smart.
But there's more to love than just that.
I'm sick of your attitude.
I'm sick of you being mad at me for nonsense.
I had a dream about you last night.
In the dream, you were the prettiest thing on earth.
We were hanging out
then all of a sudden...
HE showed up.
He was grabbing you by the waste and touching you all around.
That was the last straw.
With one punch i broke his jaw.
I woke up with my heart beating like a just ran a mile.
I never like that feeling and i never want it again.
...This is the end of the road.
