It was him or it was me

by maya   Jun 8, 2007


Just 18 i turned,life was going good for me
Until one day , you followed me
You asked me my name , i asked you why ?
You said "Just wondering" , i said goodbye.

Out of that store , you just walked out
I went to the counter , and checked out
Going towards my car , there you were ,
Smiling at me , looking excited in your shiny car

You asked me out , without a doubt , "i said no ",
i know what men like you are about
You refused to give up , kept talking to me
Until i finally said , i have to go , my boyfriend is waiting on me

You took off , i never looked back , no kidding, i felt attacked Months have now passed , summer is at its glow ,I forgot about you , was going with the flow

Out of nowhere , yet again there you were
You noticed me , i drove fast and far

seeing you around , gave me the creeps , you looked like a bad guy or was it just me?

Yet again you followed , tried to ask me out ,
you don't want to give up , telling me "let me show you what I'm really about"

All of a sudden , you put out a charm ,
you convinced me you were nice and took me to a bar

We sat there and talked , i asked a lot about you
I was a little scared , of what you would do

The date went by nice , you charmed your way through
When i got home , i felt bad of being scared of you

You did not seem scary , in fact real nice ,
i decided i was going to , give you a chance

The relationship started , on a beautiful note
Months have now passed, you are the one, who would have thought ?

So nice , so sweet, your caring and kisses were , until one day , you went too far

All of a sudden , you completely changed, this is not the man i met , i was right at the first place

One year has passed , now I'm harassed , told what to do ,accused for the past

Day in and day out , you are now disrespecting me ,
you are, scaring the life out of me

I wanted to leave , a couple of times ,you kept threatening me, telling me, "Your life will not last"

Now I'm in fear , every time you come near , i feel sick to my stomach , just want to disappear

I continued with you , wished i could change the past ,
wish i would have listened to my instincts , wished i never gave you a chance

4 years have now passed , i have no more tears in my eyes , i am destroyed , my future is trashed

Year 5 is coming up , things are still the same , i am now officially, your personal slave

I lost my friends ,my family is in doubt , wondering , will i ever come around ?

One night i could not sleep , just laid in my bed , 5 years of misery , are packed in my head

My anger grew stronger ,through out the night , i have decided , its time to put up a fight

I have decided , that its time to be free , i have decided it was either him or it was me

To be continued ....
