Array ( [sid] => 16045 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Broken [time] => 2003-04-15 16:05:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I watch you
As we tear each other apart
I don't want to stay
You don't care
But I'm still here
Still pretending
Misery lies within
When the one I love
Breaks my heart everyday
You say you love me
But deep inside I know
It's not our hearts the hold us
Ropes of a wrestling ring
Hold me down
As you take your shots at me
Break me down
After all these years
You know my weaknesses for sure
How to exploit them
I turn to walk away
But I am frozen in a trance
As I watch hate brew in your eyes
I just want to go
But I'm too stubborn to fold
Take my loss
Remaining in a building
With no foundation
You call it love
I call it hell

Bound to hell by chains of love. The sin is his, set yourself free and find the paradise you so richly deserve.

kara, i agree very much with what wordpoet said... its a terrible thing when you cant leave, but what reasons do you have to stay? you deserve what this butthole (please excuse that comment) has to offer you, look for only the best, find your perfect match and live your life happy. best wishes dear friend

as everyone has said this is very sad and sometimes it maybe hard to read when the imagery of this abuse comes to us... its hard to leave something that can be so wonderful at times yet some evil most times... a rose i will not give to you for it pricks you i choose the gentle lily as a gift for you
