Cry
I cry
Because
I respect him
I love him
I want him
I need him
but he doesn't understand
How much I need him to exist in my life.
How can he live so blind?
How can he cheat and use me ?
How can he overlook me?
Why does he look at me as control only at his whimsical need?
Why is he so disgusted with me?
Does he hate me?
Why does he talk to me like a thing?
I cry because I faught so hard
To love myself
I fought so hard
To find myself
I fought so hard
To accept myself
So as I stand here whole..
How can I be used only as a service and not as a companion?
When we both have the same melanin...
I cry because I make myself the victim again...and again..
Will I ever learn that ?
Or will I be the same girl I see
Those ones that gave up and spread her legs
afterwards
