LEAVING

DEDICATION,PASSION,SACRIFICE,AND STRIVE

EVERY WORD YOU EVER SPOKE

TURNED OUT TO BE A LIE

WITH SHOTS TO THE CHEST

AND BLOWS TO THE SIDE

EVERY MINUTE YOU BROUGHT BLOODY TEARS TO MY EYES

I HAD A SLIGHT VISION OF LEAVING

UNTIL I REALIZED

EVERYTHING THAT I WAS

WAS SEIZING

SEIZNG TO THE FACT THAT

YOU OWNED ME

AND THE ONLY WAY I

COULD GET OUT

IS IF I MURDERED YOU

YET KILLING YOU WOULD ONLY LOCK ME DOWN

THEN I REALIZED THAT

I HAD MORE POWER THAN YOU GAVE ME

I OWNED EVERYTHING THAT YOU ARE

YOU WERE WEAK

NOTHING ABOUT YOU SCREAMED SCARE

EXCEPT YOUR VOICE

SO I TOOK IT UPON MYSELF TO LEAVE

LEAVING MY SANITY IN THE HANDS TO FATE

AND LEAVING FATE IN THE HANDS OF

THE THINGS I CAME IN WITH

DEDICATION,PASSION,SACRIFICE,AND STRIVE

this poem is very strong minded. do to the fact that u know what u want. sometime a person has to take back their life that they let someone hold for a moment and they didn`t know what to do with it. very good.

Wow! Full of honesty and growth. To rise above the ugliness of a relationship shows charater and stregthen. very good write.

This poem is very good, it sounds like the writings onf one in a relationship, or maybe was in a relationship-
if so keep up the work - it can be cathartic
