PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I knew deep down I wasn’t perfect

You didn’t have to rub it in my face

It was harsh how you pointed out deficiencies

It was cruel of you to pick on my mistakes



I knew deep down I wasn’t pretty

You didn’t have to accentuate the fact

Your constant castigation was so evil

You really didn’t have to be like that



I knew deep down I wasn’t too smart

You didn’t have to throw it all around

You found ways to make me look so slow and stupid

You humiliated me and brought me down



I knew deep down I didn’t like me

You didn’t have to go and make things worse

You broke me and degraded me severely

You punished me and ruined my self-worth



Now I know deep down that I hate you

I know deep down it’s a shame

And I know deep down it’s not my fault

Cause deep down, you made me this way
