Thoughts for the day: Dark Soul


And you broke me,

Broke me like before.

 I can't help but wonder why I kept going back for more.

I set aside all the pain and I watched you drown yourself day by day.

 And through it all, I'm the one who stayed.

 Is this what I deserve?



You would stumble in late at night,

Words belligerent, you wanted to fight.

I did my best to lay you down, but you just wanted to fool around.

No matter how hard I tried, I’m the one who almost died.

And as I cried, the look you had in your eyes,

Who was staring back at me?


I can see the bruises in the light,

reminding myself of that night,

The way I screamed out for help,

and

all

that

 echoed back was my hell.


Is this how it is going to be?

You.

Scared.

Life.

Into.

Me.
