I sat there shaking
silenced by the noise
your lips were making
all the while contemplating
why do I bear with you
when all you do is
rip me through
bitch about failures
when you couldn't prove
that you ever loved me
and my body's not a tool
for your pleasure plunging
a bag you can go punching
Your actions didn't speak at all
perhaps overwhelmed and appalled
by your words too tall
to cover up the shortcomings
of your shallow commitments
finally taking a toll
and now that you see my heart sore
yet your eyes don't realize
'Twas my soul you had to adore.

I sat there shaking
silenced by the noise
your lips were making
all the while contemplating
why do I bear with you
when all you do is
rip me through
bitch about failures
when you couldn't prove
that you ever loved me
and my body's not a tool
for your pleasure plunging
a bag you can go punching
Your actions didn't speak at all
perhaps overwhelmed and appalled
by your words too tall
to cover up the shortcomings
of your shallow commitments
finally taking a toll
and now that you see my heart sore
yet your eyes don't realize
'Twas my soul you had to adore.
