Tell Me

Tell Me

A Poem by Jeff

Tell me this is all a dream

Tell me you left

Tell me you didn't stay with him


I'm walking around in a daze

Lost in a world

Where he keeps you


Were the poems not good enough

They came from the heart

And now my heart is breaking


Tell me you didn't say goodbye

Tell me you're coming back

Tell me my love was good enough


I'm lost and confused

That you'd rather stay

With the abuser


Was my love not good enough

To take your heart away

From his uncaring grip

Sometimes, unfortunatly, love just isnt enough to make someone stay.

This is so sad. I've been there myself. Before I met my wife I met several young women devoted to abusive boyfriends I would have gladly punched into the next world! I so wanted to be their knight in shining armour. But they would have none of it, preferring to remain with their sorry excuse of a man.
