What did I do?

What did I do babe?
Why are you so angry at me?
All I did was hold your hand, and get you flowers.
Please baby, stop hitting me!

I stand outside and shake my head.
Wiping the blood away from my mouth, I look back.
Why was she so angry with me? I just don't get it.
Driving home, I slam my door tight, my own anger seething.

How could that bitch do that to me?
When did I do anything wrong?
Fuck it!
I'm so sick of this.

I'm tired of being treated like shit.
When all I ever did was love her.
Farewell to love, and all it's cruelties.
For I have seen the demonic red behind her eyes.

Demonic red that lured me in
Lured and trapped me like a fish
And like a salmon I lay helpless with you babe
I never knew you were like this
Never knew you were this evil

Never knew you were capable of hurting me this badly
Now as my heart bleeds
And my soul's crying out
You turn away and laugh

Each syllable torturing me like a knife
Each knife slashing at my soul
At my confidence
At my will to live

I pick up the phone
I just can't do this
The phone drops to the floor
I sit on my bed, shaking with anger

Bile is rising in my throat
Anger is coursing through my veins
I want to hurt you so badly
I want to kill you

You fucking bitch
How can you sit there and think it's just a game?
When I gave everything I had to you?

    I know EXACTLY how you feel in this piece. I'm the one thats gunna walk away today, but he's the one that's ruined me. He's the one thats tortured my soul....... I'm so sick of being strong for someone else. I need someone to be strong for me while I break....

    This poem went a little further than I thought it would. It was interesting. It reminded me of a few poems I wrote, but not to this extreme:
    1. Heartless
    2. The Masquerador
    3. Beautiful Garden Facade
    Thanks for sharing.

  • very angsty... more angst than raw anger... I was looking for something raw i should prolly hurry and add that to the contest description... Besides that this was good, I could feel the anger you felt towards her.

  • Beautiful

    I love this poem so much. You put so much emotion into this and it seems like you've been hurt badly. I love this so much that I can't stop talking about it. Keep writing. One day you could be famous for your poetry.

    this brought tears to my eyes I just can't seem to see why females have t obe so cruel I guess it might be because she is tired of getting hurt so she was hurting you and pushing you away before you could get any closer to her

    Wow

    This was very strong of words it was really good. Sometimes you just have to watch yourself and love yourself for awhile before you can show her what you really feel. Trust me I know well I hoped everything is all right with all and everything.

    Something along these lines is what I think we should go for... I know I've already commented, but I've seen a lot of poems in my years on AP But yes, something like this, methinks. Bravo again!

    Wow, this is great, it made me angry to read it because the emotion seeped right out of it! I saw a lot of anger and hatred-mixed-with-love. It was really great, and even more so that you worked with someone on it! You should edit it and list the helper in the "Collaborate" Box. That would be a little more helpful for the reader.
    All in all, you did a very great job!
    Sorry.

    Well... I was skeptical towards the beginning... I am not a fan of the word babe. But as I read on and got the very strong sense that you were in a killing mood ... the atmosphere changed and I ended up liking this a lot more than I thought I would. Not bad. Good luck in the contest.
