Defeated Never Again

by anonymous - Scorpio

You beat me once
I wasn't good enough
You beat me twice
I was worthless
You beat me again
I was your stress reliever
The beatings went on and on
It became a routine
I looked in your eyes
I saw you were sorry
You looked in my eyes
You saw i forgave you
I looked deep w/ in you
I saw a heart filled w/ jealousy
You looked deep w/ in me
And you saw a heart begging for love
The love i was cheated of
The love you claimed you felt for me
The love you acted out
After every single beating
You told me you beat me because you loved me
I was foolish and young and i believed you
you told me you beat me for my own good
I was foolish and young and i loved you
I lived in fear of you
I didn't want to be your punching bag
I ran from my fears
For 6 months
But now it is time
For me to stop running
Stop running from my fears
And reveal myself
For love isn't shown 
Through a beating
And the word "sorry" isn't meant
If it happens then on
At first you were the hero
And i was your servant
But now i'm the hero
And soon you will be the defeated enemy
I won't defeat you
By playing by your rules
I'll plan the defeat my way
W/ my own rules
I won't stoop to your level
And make you feel worthless
But i will prove to you
I don't need your love

Reason for writing:

    it's obvious what this poem is about... The guy still shows up at my front door... and continues to think he's my boss, and thinks he can tell me who to date. And i thank the guy i'm dating and all of his friends. And i will not end my relationship w/ the guy i'm dating for a good for nothing dick that thinx he has all control over me. I'm not white trash... and i'm not here to be treated like shit!
