Damaged
Love is such a beautiful thing
Something to be marveled at
Such a rare bloom
She was a hopeless romantic who wanted love so badly she couldnt tell it wasnt love
Rescued in your loving arms from a different man who left me broken and abused
You took care of me so well
Afternoons of presenting roses at my feet
I love you's
Fancy dates
Lovely days
But then the change came, oh so slowly
Roses were replaced with lies
Lovely days were replaced with threats
Silent treatments
Something was in it for you behind closed doors
Locked doors...
You wore that ring like it meant something
I still dont know what I did to deserve this
Harsh words seared into the core of my heart
Nine months later there is a completely different human in front of me
But are you even human?
Who does that?
You did to me what she did to you...
I tried to pick you up and help you heal but you used me same as him
You're no savior
My stomach churns when I see your messages
Someone I would have died for slowly killing me and I can still feel it
It hurts so bad
There is a weight on my chest when I wake up every morning and its getting heavier...its suffocating me...
But you dont care
I cry until my lungs ache and I pass out. Tear stained pillows and cheeks.
Why is he making this so hard?
This is not love
But you turn it around on me
That I brought this on myself
But I'm too smart, I know I didn't
Its too bad I didn't see it earlier
Because you never loved me
