I Thought I Could

I thought I could handle your brutal abuse, towards me. Always putting me down,in front of my friends and family.  
I thought I could fight this abuse off from you,yet I'm shaking my head in disbelief. 
I thought I could love you how you'd demand it,from me. 
I thought you might changed in and out of character,that I could say I am in love with. 
I thought you might be different from my exs,  but time after time. It's just another bad habit for me to attract mean men,like yourself  
I thought you would see my good within me.
I thought I was struggling with you by myself. 
I thought you were so disrespectful towards me, for the last 8.5 years. 
I thought I found my strengths within myself. To finally get out of the abuse home, that you call ours.
