You demanded a list
Of all I had done to add
To your life
As if I was wasted time
Wasted air
And yet I still listed out loud
Some of things I know I had done
To make you better.

This morning I am sad and angry
I don't want to return
I have so much to say
And there is just no need
I showed you the insides of
My eyelids
Gave you pieces of my heart
Sacrificed my own well being
Happiness
Anything I could
To keep this going
And yet still
At the end of it all
You would disrespect all I am
All I have worked for
Push me to my breaking point
And still come back for more

As if to only say
In-between bites of my egg
Go, leave

You just never thought I would.
