i wish i could
go back in time
and change
the choice i made.
i never should
have stayed with him
as long as i did.
i was stupid
to believe in him
and give him
all my trust.
i told myself
it would be fine;
a girl does
what she must.
but looking back
i realize
i should have
let him go.
he didn't care
what happened to me
all for the
sake of love.
but what would
he have thought
if that man had
pulled the trigger?
would he have
felt remorse
or would he
even care?
what would
he have thought
if i had pushed
the blade too far?
he didn't care that
i did it in the first place
but what if
i had died?
would he have known
it was his fault?
would that bastard
give a damn?
eventually
he'd figure out
the blood
was on his hands.
the cuts and bruises
i received
will heal
and fade away.
but the mental damage
done to me
will never
go away.
but now that he
is gone for good
my life is
so much better.
my mind is clear
of all bad memories
and i concentrate
on what really matters.
in time i hope
that i'll forget
the pain
he put me through.
forget about
the lies he told
the love
that was untrue.
someday i'll find
a man to love
who'll always
treat me right.
a man i know
will be there to protect me
all day
and through the night.

You go girl!
Personally, I still don't think he would have cared... it was always all about him.
Life lessons... ouch.
You'll be stronger for it though.
I sense good things coming your way.
You are a talent; look for someone who will let you shine... appreciate your gifts... someone who listens.
Very nice write... wise words;
thanks for sharing, Kj -
