Enough is too far
I’m fed up, annoyed.
A glutton for punishment
Toxic dependence aside.
Nauseous, in pain
Religious it seems
Can break my heart over
With a click and a screen.
Lies upon lies
What truths will come clean
A photo, an action
Why is he so mean?
Infinite times
In my head I have shouted
Leave, get away
Be free, departed.
A sick twisted thrall
Holds me close, pulls me near
The darkness, the torment
To fight, to come clear.
Exhausted, alone
Gathering scraps of my soul
Welding, mending
A bright, lighter woman my goal.
Sick to the stomach
I gradually breathe
Let’s better my world
Stand up, head high, leave.
