The pain you left,
Was not so easy to forget.
The words I heard,
Are not something I deserved.
The times I was thrown against the stairs,
The time I barely missed the things you threw,
The times I knew no one cared.
I wish I would have run away,
Then maybe the pain would have stayed.
But I didn't,
I stayed and let you take your rage out on me,
I stayed as if there was nowhere I had to be.
I hated you,
I hated me,
I just wanted to die and go away.
I just wanted it to stop,
I just wanted the bruises gone,
Even though I knew there were scars you could not see,
I just wanted you to leave me be.
I still loved you,
I just couldn't stand what you put me through. |
