When you charge me with this accusations <br />It only tears away at me <br />You're the one who braught me up from down <br />Don't be the one to make me bleed <br /> <br />It's only slander lately, that's what I hear from you <br />Not words of love, not from your heart <br />Words of rage, bent on tearing me apart <br />Most of the time it's not my fault <br />But I feel I'm forced to take the blame <br />You can't imagine how much I hate this game <br /> <br />You know I love you, You know how much I care <br />It's not so much fun when the shame is there <br />Knowing that daily there's no maybe <br />I'm bound to be accused <br /> <br />I know you don't mean it, you probably don't even see <br />I know you don't mean it, but it's honestly killing me <br />You wonder why I'm so scared of phones <br />It's the bad news, and it's sad to say <br />but it normally comes from you <br /> <br />Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to make you feel bad <br />I just wanted to let you know why I am sad <br />and I know you didn't mean it the way it was intended <br />but it's just the way the words blended <br />that started bringing me down <br /> <br />Now I have no doubt, I have no fear <br />I just wish that you could hear <br />What I try to say <br />but my voice can never seem to get through <br />These accusations every day <br /> <br />I'm not trying to avoid you <br />I'm just trying to give you space <br />because the truth is I think we both need it now <br />I can only hope you will see that somehow <br />Because I never wanna lose what I hold so dear <br /> <br />and I know I'm just venting now I know I should wrap this up <br />Momma's not always gonna be there with wine in her cup <br />To pull us back when the tension is here <br />and I just don't want to lose, what I hold so dear.<br /><br />Moth Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/accusations-2/
