Your words

Your actions

Hurt me

Wound me


And not just me

Everyone

Is hurting

Because of You


Your family

Your friends

My friends

Strangers


No one believes me

When I say

You're abusive

You're toxic


No one

Realizes

So I'm left alone with this

Agony


Everyone trusts You

Never me

Which hurts

Even more


And I'm left

With this ache

Nothing to ease it

Nothing to fix it


This unrelenting

Anger and hate

Toward myself

Wanting to heal


And You


I want You

To leave

Yet want You

To stay


Make my pain worse

That's all You want

Don't leave me

Not yet


So many

Insecurities

And You hit

Every one


Self-conscious

Self-hatred

Caused by You

And You alone


Worrying about

What I'm doing wrong

To have made You

Like this


It's all my fault

That You

Hate me

I'm what's wrong


And now



Seeing You

Is painful

Knives stabbing

My heart


Want to get over it

But You still manage

To hurt me

From the other side of the room


Why would You

Hurt me

How could You

Cause this


The no one

That You were friends with

For so long

Oh so long


And I remember

The good times

The happy memories

As I push You aside


The Happy

Kind

Caring

Person You used to be


Disappeared



Replaced



With you.


And I'm leaving you

I'm leaving your lies

I'm leaving your hate

And I'm leaving the power I gave you


The power to hurt Me

Is no longer yours

No one

Should have that power


No one 

Will have that power


Over Me.
