You
are
so
mean

Incredibly
mean

You
take
from
me
all
given
things

and take them
for granted

How do I

  know     this for sure?

When I've kept

manipulative

    lovers who loved more to reprogram me

How do I

      separate the abuse from the present?

I
am
so
sad

Romance means a process
and I've watched for years by your side
with my eyes aglow for my god
as you cut your tether to me with
the courage to do nothing else but
tell me otherwise, like I haven't spent
thousands of nights wishing and wanting
for the light of my life
when she was right there
right there
