Stormy

I'm hurt by you
Badly.
Torn by you
Deeply.
Am I so pathetic in your eyes?

Are you not supposed to
Love me?
In all ways
Cherish me?
It doesn't look like it from here.

You treat me right
Sometimes.
Treat me wrong
Others.
Change like the weather.

So is today
Dry?
Will tomorrow be
Stormy?
I need to be prepared.

Prepared for you
Now
Ready for you
Later.
Not be taken down so harshly.

Harshly by
You.
The one that's supposed to lift me.
Not damage me with your words.

And if this is what they call love
Then I'd rather not be loved by you..
