In the beginning I let you know, <br />About angry words, and how deep they go. <br />And what it meant to me that they not be said. <br />As the anger in your heart began to show, <br />Your words got meaner and this I know. <br />Anything you could think of to say and hurt me, <br />If I gave you no response, <br />You would come up with another thought... <br />My mistakes I made you slapped me with… <br />But that was only the beginning. <br />You begged and begged to let you in. <br />To let my heart and your heart be forever friends, <br />To lean on you when I was covered in pain, <br />Storm clouds all around me and pouring rain. <br />So I did as you asked me, <br />I let you in, <br />That is where the danger did begin. <br />My mother was dying and you did not care. <br />My burden was heavy, <br />My heart in swollen despair. <br />Though your love took me places I never knew, <br />Your temper and angry words beat me black and blue. <br />In the beginning I would not participate, <br />I warned you about those angry words, <br />I told you they breed hate. <br />But everytime I did not react, <br />You searched deeper, found something to attack. <br />You even used my dying mom, <br />When you missed work and how come? <br />To be there for me you say, <br />Your words are hollow now and that is how it will stay. <br />The lines of love have been broken. <br />With your wicked tongue and the words I've spoken. <br />You knew you took me back to memories I did not want to go. <br />I cried and begged to you on the phone, <br />I thought you got it then, <br />Little did I know… <br />It only got worse as you felt me slipping away, <br />That is why I am not here today. <br />You are forever embedded in my heart, <br />But so is the pain and that will never part. <br />I am sorry it has to be this way, <br />Maybe we will both change one day.<br /><br />Butterflies In My Belly Forever<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/angry-words-3/
