I Found Out


Six months into our relationship, you began cheating on me.

Maybe it was your guy best friend’s fault. 

Six months later

I found out. 

You started selling drugs

I found out.

Drugs and alcohol seemed to be all you consumed

I found out.

You decided you’re going to join the military

I found out.

You consumed alcohol at work, then raped me.

I found out you’re dangerous...toxic.

I’ll always love you

I’ll find out.
