Tired of the arguments every night
Tired of every stupid little fight
I'm done with the painful words you speak
My heart can take no more, I'm so weak
You tell me I'm always the one in the wrong
Tell me that I will see it all before too long
I'm not going to listen to you blame me
When you are the one at fault, you will see
I'm exhausted from all the energy drained
My pain and anguish no longer contained
You say I'm the one who needs to apologize
But if I did that it would be nothing but lies
Why should I sit here and listen to you put me down
It hurts so much, but you don't care when I frown
I want to get away from these long and weary nights
To put behind us all these stupid and petty fights
You say you are never wrong, there's no way you can be
But there have been others who see it, not just me
Why would I pretend, why would I want to lie to you
I have no reason, it something I could never do
It hurts to think that you think you are so good
You say that no matter what you never could
Pretending you love me and treat me right
Tears falling while I'm alone every cold lonely night
Why would you act so high and mighty
How is it you think you are better than me
I want to be happy, to be with you forever and more
Having double standards, that's not what I'm here for
Take me in your arms and admit your defeat out loud
Don't ruin this because you are too proud
What we have could be so wonderful, so great
So please, just admit to it before its too late
Author notes
My boyfriend has these double standards with me. He does something and then when I do it he gets angry with me, then when he does something he got on me for doing and I try to call him on it he gets pissed with me. I am just getting so tired of always being the one to say sorry and trying to make everything better when more often than not, I haven't done anything wrong. I always apologize to make things better even when he is wrong. I am just so tired of all the heart ache and the tears I cry every night because of it.
Tell me, what did you think?

Sounds like a frustrating situation, give him a slap upside the head for me.
*just kidding* 
The rhyme was flowing in this and the last stanza was definitely my favourite and had a great impact. I also like the title and it compliments the poem.
Nice, heartfelt write.

Thank you,
It was definitely frustrating to experience this, and as its not the first nor will it be the last I know that I will get through it every time. Thank you for the praise, I'm glad you enjoyed the poem. As for the title, I'm glad you commented on it. I wasn't sure if it really worked too well or not. Thanks again.
