It never is because
I don’t love you so
It is only due to
The way you want to show
How you love me
Culture dismissal
The words “I love you”
Area sisal.
Cutting into me as you argue over anything
I didn’t know I’d have a problem this bad
For this long
The truth is that I love you
And the words have lost their meaning
For other people because of you
And how you’ve started the bleeding
I can turn to someone and say “I love you”
Without a second thought
Because to me, they’re words of care
But they are attention sought
I do not love them in a way
To where marriage would be the result
Even though that is what it is used for
I throw it out almost as if it’s an assault
The words in your culture are a knife
They dare you to say
Good bye
It was hard enough for me to accept this
But now as you continue your strides
The aggravation welled up inside me
How far are you willing to go?
Fine. I’ll stop saying
“I love you”
My last request?
Leave me alone.
