Whirlwind

I was told to be careful and treat her with respect
before she came into my life. I did just that 
yet everything I did wasn't good enough
she seemed to be irritated at even small things
I stopped going out and even spent more quality time at home
but every time I turned around she was raging mad

She was jealous of me seeing my family and friends so I stopped
She didn't want me going to church and that's where I wanted to
draw the line but I obliged her requests in hopes
that would make her happy. We have been together 
for almost two years and I know she isn't happy with me.

This relationship is toxic but I don't know how to let her go.
She is apart of me now but I know I deserve better and one
day she will be in my past. Her name is Covid, I'm sure you've heard of her!
