Inner Turmoil
My heart says go
My mind says no
Hurt I am
Lost I feel
You meant the world
For I gave you the world
You could not value it
You could not treasure it
My support
My love
My caresses
You did not need
You did not feel its worth
You threw it away
With that last blow
My years of hardwork
My years of loyalty
My years of love and support
You threw away like it was nothing at all
Did you not realise I had a limit?
Did you not listen to my words "dont push me too far?"
All gone and lost
Because of your anger and control
To cage another
When you want to be free
To limit another
When you want the unlimited
To hurt another
When you want to be unhurt
where, pray tell,
is the sense, the justice in this?
Is it ignorance?
or
do you assume this is manhood?
I bleed inside
Yet smile for my loved ones
I do my duties
That which you could never match up to do
You feel not what I had
The love
The respect
The need
The want
You felt none of it
But
The Pain
The Hurt
The Whimpers
The Moans
The Agony
The Loss
The Loneliness
The Betrayal
The sheer heights of losing all I put so much into
You shall feel
Your Time will come
For he sees all
You said He forgives anyone who asks for forgivness
But you took no note of the fact
That he sees if your apoligy was truthful
If you would learnt not to do it again
Yet time and time again you did it
And now your apoligies mean nothing to me or Him
Life will be hard for me
But atleast it will be away from you
Life will be harder for you
Mark my words it shall be
For noone will cook your meals
Pay your bills
Wash you clothes
And do all I did
For nothing in return
I asked not of
Money
Nor of anything else
I needed not
Materialistic things
Nor words of the moons and stars
I hoped
Simply hoped
I would get my dues
The Love
The Respect
The Support
That all woman deserve and need
Yet you gave me nothing
And
Took everything
You took my innocent smiles of teen years
and turned them into fake smiles of the feared
You took my sweet sixteen laughter, that boomed the walls
And turned them into surpressed coughs
You took away those who meant so much to me
Turning me into a loner
