You pushed me down
Spat at me
Left me there to die
Then picked me up
Apologized
Listened as I cried
History
Repeats itself
You did it one more time
I wasn't sure
If I could carry on
Ignorant, I ignored the signs
You loved me
Then you left me
To do this on my own
You promised me
That soon one day
We would find a home
But now I think
I understand
What I have to know
To get back to the surface
And live my life
Alone

PoetryWhen you love somebody, it leaves you vulnerable. It gives them an opportunity to break you, leaving you responsible to pick up the pieces. Then they come back and do it all again.
