A genuine recount of some interactions I've had with the man in my life
"Stupid bitch, why are you so dumb?"
Your poisonous words have made me numb.
"You look like a slut, dressed like a whore."
You never tell me I look nice any more.

"Why did you do that? What's the plan?"
I like to try new things when I think I can.
"You're too weak, you'll never succeed."
I wish you gave the encouragement I need.

"Be like me - don't give a shit"
Not a chance, even a little bit.
"You never say no, you're such a sap"
At least people know that I give a crap.

"You've put on weight and now you'll pout"
You've insulted me just as I'm about to go out!
"I don't care when you're back, be as late as you want"
I feel your distaste when you're so nonchalant.

"You don't love me, you're incapable of caring"
It's you that shuts me down when I try sharing.
"Your stories bore me, I'm just not interested"
Then why did you ask if you're not invested?

"You're cheating on me, there's another man"
Would you even care if I said that I am?
"We're not getting married, it's a waste of money"
I don't know if you're trying to be funny.

"Grow the fuck up, you're so immature"
I have to pick my jaw up from the floor.
"What do you want, why are you in my space?"
Silly me, trying to plant a kiss on your face.

"You're never at home, always at work"
I wonder why, you ignorant jerk.
"I miss you my love, let's go on a date"
It's always too little and way too late.
