Taken From Me

There will always be one thing,
I will never understand.
I wonder why this monster,
takes all that she can.

I just can't understand,
that if I'm happy, just a bit,
this monster takes it all away,
and tramples all through it.

This monster has a look,
that's implanted on her face,
it's usually directed to me,
a look filled with such hate.

If I ever find a friend,
she will ban them from my heart.
I just can't understand,
why we must be kept apart.

This monster's completely fixed,
on what she can take from me.
She's already used up my trust,
and taken my freedom with ease.

This monster takes all I love,
and trashes it with pride.
She thinks I still should love her,
but any love for her has died.

Why should I love her,
when she's driven me to such hate?
She says it's for my protection.
I call it a horrible fate.

This monster I have known,
is reality at it's best.
She has ripped out my heart,
while still beating in my chest.
