Array ( [sid] => 14861 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Burn Me Once [time] => 2003-03-25 03:05:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Burn me once shame on you
Burn me twice shame on me
How could I be so foolish and trust in you again
To think you'd be there when I needed you
It's amazing how I always help you out
But you never help me
Maybe I shouldn't help you as much
Your always holding me back from greater things
Like a living crutch
Except you're a crooked crutch a twisted thing
You make the problems worse than they seem
You act like you're helping but you always hinder
You've burned me so many times
I am but a cinder [comments] => 4 [counter] => 299 [topic] => 6 [informant] => TundraHydra [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => AngryPoetry )

the first step to getting out of a relationship that is no good for you is realising that it is no good for you. Well done for taking that step. Great poem. Keep the good work coming!
