A Poem I wrote about two years ago |
What have I done to myself? I am standing in front of the mirror Hating who I have become Why didn't I learn to love myself first? I should have been my first priority But instead, I made sure he filled that spot Ohh yeah he paid the bills But I paid for it everytime he disrespected me Yeah I paid them bills with my self-esteem He claims He loves me But how can the same person that utters "I love You" Also utter "I hate you bitch" Is it me or am I stupid? dumb This doesnt make sense to me But I once heard "If this is love, I dont want it anymore" But those kind words he says makes the pain go away, for now But when he raises his hand, pain, hurt and all the memories comes back I loved him so I thought I wanted to be his wife, so I thought I wanted to be his number one, so I thought I wanted to be his main thing, so I thought But instead I became the side chick Never became his wife I became his number two and hell sometimes number three Main thing wasn't even a thought to him But what I should have wanted all along was to love me To make myself my number one I should made sure I had everything I needed and wanted To be so in love with myself it hurt I am done with this SHIT As I slammed my fist against the mirror and walked out Leaving someone else to pick up the broken pieces Yours Truly Ebs |
