My body is inverted:
My true colours are on show.
The power you have exerted
Has taken over me; im vulnerable
This you know.
Im wearing my heart:
Im no longer living from its beat.
Yet again I played my part
And lost; im losing
As I know you cheat.
You've become like other men:
You no longer allow me to fly.
You've clipped my wings again
And i've fallen; but as usual
You know i'll comply.
All I can do is hide my face:
Ive become ashamed of who I am.
From my thoughts I try to erase
You; Our relationship
Was nothing but a sham.
But this feeling wont last long
As to you i believe i belong.

I dont mean any offence to the bit about other men, thats personal to me. Im comparing my friends boyfriends to this guy, but only in that bit, NOT to other men!!!
Please dont be offended

I think this very accurately depicts the mishaps that occur in controlling/"bad" relationships.. Good write dear! I wish the best to you...your pain and desire to move on are apparent in your words.
Take care!

Trust me I know how "Other Men" are.
I've had my share of broken hearts and how men are.
It's not that all men are bad but most of the ones I've known are the same.
