you don't know how hard it is
being with a guy
who always makes you feel ugly.
you don't know how hard it is
having him make jokes
that he knows aren't funny.
you don't know how hard it is
letting yourself pour out
and having him shut himself up.
you don't know how hard it is
asking him why he chose you
and having him say
that he doesn't know.
he's never known.
you don't know how hard it is
never feeling loved
a toy meant for exploitation.
you don't know how hard it is
to waste months of your time
on someone who doesn't care about you.
you don't know how hard it is
to watch him with other girls
and tell yourself that you're not good enough.
you don't know how hard it is
to have him put
you down.
you don't know how hard it is
to convince yourself that
all his problems are your fault.
you don't know how hard it is.
you will
never
know.

wow
this poem was fantastic. However I will have to disagree with you because i do know what its like. i spent three months with a guy like that. no matter what i did i was wrong. he made jokes about my weight. he talked about me behind my back. i told him things and he used them against me. and i often wondered why he even asked me out in the first place. later on after i broke up with him i found out it was because he wanted to get closer to my sister. so i know exactly how you feel. i hope things get better for you like they got better for me. fantastic write.
