Love is not for everyone

You came into my life slowly.

She said you were a protector,

You protect everyone you know and love.

She never said we’d need protection from you. 

I thought we finally found someone safe. 

Someone who’d love us no matter what. 

You always said you’d love me like your own.

So what happened that night?

All of a sudden we weren’t worth you love.

Between the screaming and yelling,

I forgot about the love you once showed us,

I forgot about all the times you said you’d protect us,

Because it was just me and her versus you.

No one to protect us.

With every slap and every curse,

I felt defeated.

A defeat i have never felt before. 

I’ve never had a father but i knew this wasn’t it. 

Fathers are meant to love and to protect,

Not get angry and throw the ones you love around.

You we’re suppose to protect us from everyone and everything,

But you never said we’d need protection from you.

The drive after felt like forever. 

Our tears became one that night,

We felt defeated. 

You we’re suppose to be the one who showed us love,

But i guess love is not for everyone.
