Frustration will you ever go away
Can't you leave me alone for just one day
I am so frustrated
Don't underrate it
It is tearing me apart
At least creates this art
But how much can a person take
I am on the brink every move I make
toward losing it just letting it out
I need to scream and shout
Can't get away
home or work any day
both hit hard everyday
frustration hits me hard
in the house or in the yard
hard at work
or at home with the jerk
who is a slob
who needs a job
his name is Bob
emotions rob
makes me tune him out
cuz he goes on and on aggravating me
what can his reason be
where would he be without me
why does he have to torment me
why do I put up with it
why don't I throw him out with all his shit
refuses to bathe, refuses to shave
disgusts me in everyway he possibly can
he is just plain mean man
he is an alcoholic
who drives me to drink
cuz I don't wanna think
about why I put up with him anymore
I want him out of my life forevermore
it's long overdue
anyone who knows me can tell you it's true
I know it too
just don't know what to do
he won't leave so I give up
I am just not strong enough
I need a place to clear my head
I am losing my mind
so I am not kind
I've lashed out and overreacted
can't keep my feelings in check
been held in far too long
and I am not that strong
surprised I managed this far along
God help me I need it
appreciate advice if you read it
please forgive and forget
if you're caught in the crossfire
I will have much to regret
and much of you to admire
a friend's support
never been known to hurt
guess it helps to share
frustration beware
don't fall into this trap
or you'll suffer a heavy rap
Very powerful-even before you reference Bob. You don't need him. You are stronger than you realize and would be better off on your own. You've got the Apollonians in your corner. My heart is with you.
Been there done that
trapped oh well must be 50 ways to leave your lover
pick one and actually do it

Good poem, why don't you divorce him or something?
I had not seen this one before. Very emotional and I can tell you are at wits end. HOpe it's over soon. You say he is driving you to drink, hopefully this is a catch phrase and not literal because it's not the answer.Have a few with friends to relax but don't get toasted. If he's a boozer let him drown his insecurities but don't let that happen to you. I believe in you ,in your abilities and capabilities,you will get through this and I will be here to listen ...
