Beat me downA Poem by Kat-Marie BertiI can’t live with you hurting me this way Beat me down so that I cannot breathe See the blood dripping from my wrists at night Want you so bad, but you’re so bad for me It kills me inside to see you acting this way How can our love die, smothered into ashes My own fault for giving you my whole self When you can never know me, hideaway behind the darkness Grasp my throat; squeeze the life from my lungs See the sadness dwell in my eyes, tears fall down Take away my pain; make me suffer for my sins Treat me like a dog; kick me down to the ground Begging you to stop even when I know you won’t Watch me gasp for air, clutch my bruised side Want to cry whenever I see you, how can this be You are my sunshine, but you’re a demon Butcher my heart with every word you spit at me I want you when we first met, you loved me for sure But time seems to take away the good, leave the bad I live in a life that makes no sense to me Show me what I’ve been missing; I deserve every slice of pain Chew me up, screw me up, take what you want from me I am no longer with the living; I’ve died inside so soon Walk the deserted streets, alone, without your love
