Done With You

Poems About Anger

You think you can do whatever you want to me
You think you can just take my heart and break it
You think that because I care that you won't at all
Well you're about to see what it's really like to fall
I'm done treating you the way you don't treat me
This was never supposed to happen like this
Why am I your victim, what did I ever do to you?
If anything you should be kissing my feet
After all I've done for you and you just screw me over
Why were we even friends when only one of us cared
Do you even know the meaning of a friend?
Or do I have to spell it out for you?
I'm sick of these stupid little games you've played
Because I know that in every one I'm losing
But I know that I'm not trapped and I won't be
I won't let you control any of it anymore
You had a hold of my mind for so long
Making me believe I was my own poison
But how could I be the venom slowly killing me
When I was just fine before I even met you?
Yeah that's right you know you're caught now
But you still lie your way through just to see
You wanna see if I have any chances left to give
Before I finally give up and the game is yours to win again
You can't take what I'm saying to you, you can't handle the truth
You will never understand what it's like to lose
Even though you're already there
You say I have the worst of it? Look around you
You have no one on your side, you've done this to them all
Now they're all here to watch you fall
It's what you deserve and I'm sorry I was nice enough to believe you
I'm sorry I gave you that much of a chance when I shouldn't have
But my life didn't come with instructions
It hasn't told me yet who's going to hurt me and who isn't
So what if I've made mistakes, I can learn from them
It's all a part of the big picture, in my future you won't be there
I'm winning all the way through even if it doesn't always seem like it
You won't screw me over again and now I can see
If I'm gonna find another one like you eventually
But it just means I'll have the knowledge before
So I don't ever think to open that door
So say what you want, do what you always do
But you don't have control over me, I'm done with you

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Recently I've been lied to by someone that I thought I could trust and I've had this happen to me before. I used to think it was because I was stupid and not meant to be happy. But then I realized that I'm really not the only one, even if it seems that way. Everyone has had someone do this to them somehow. I'm not stupid for falling for it, the only thing that would be stupid of me is to let it happen again. I learned from this mistake not to trust everyone and everything around me but I also learned that sometimes you just can't tell the difference so you have to take that risk.
