Leaving You

by Jenni Marie   May 24, 2009


Tried so hard, to be what you wanted
Took into account everything you said
Thought that things were getting better
But guess that I was only misled

Seems it's always my fault
Everytime that we disagree
You're always the "innocent"
..Seems all that's left is debris

We used to be so good together
Only, now I'm finding out the real you
Although it hurts me to say it
Guess what we had was always untrue

Supposed to love and encourage me
Yet suddenly you're putting me down
Did you know I'm closer to running
Don't know how long I can stay around

See me as everything I said I'd never be
Always wanting it all your own way
Hurts more with each passing second
Can't you see I'm sitting here in dismay

Yet whenever I try to talk to you
About my opinion or how I feel
Say that I'm the immature selfish one
Don't see the hurt I try to conceal

Things that you say only to hurt me
Whether in anger or rage or not
You're old enough to know better
Yet this you seem to have forgot

Emotional blackmail you put upon me
Did you know it hurts a little more each time
Can barely stand to look at you anymore
What happened to when our love was sublime?

Butt today..I think that it finally hit me
Though I'm trying to keep my pain from display
Are you wondering what I've finally realized
...I realized I'm going to leave you today
