PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You said you'd be my everything
You said you'd be there if I needed a lean
But when I abused
And when I used
You were so lenient
You went back on your covenant

You said you'd protect me
From everything that was harming
But you lied
And I can't remember how much I cried
It was too alarming

Well, you've taught me so much
Letting me go to more than one crutch
Now, I know not to share my feelings
Push them deeper and deeper
And stay away from the leanings
JUST PUSH AWAY!!!

Why did I trust you
When I knew what you were saying wasn't true?
The rebellion was so wrong
Now I have to live with this for so long
What did you have to prove?

The consequences
They had no fences
Now the urges
There here and waiting for a purchase
But I have to be strong for my friends

My values were astray
Now I have to live with it every stinkin day
Because you couldn't say NO!
Because you couldn't deliver the blow
That would set me straight but now you sealed my fate

I know I'm half to blame
But knowing you're involved is so lame
Why did you wanna be a friend
When I needed a parent?
What's my life to you? Just a game?

You wonder why I stay away
I'll tell you why: Because I'm staying away from the tempting
Things that you used to lure
Me into your clutches that seemed like a cure
I won't fall for it again, I'm not going your way

But I want you to know
Through all the heartache and all the blows
I forgive you
And I love you
But it's going to take some time to be able to show....
