Hurt

Sitting here in the dark feeling so very hurt and numb,

Why do I keep putting up with this; I must be dumb.

Trying to hold back one tear, two tears, three tears, four,

I need the courage to say get out the door.

Why do I deserve to get screamed and cursed at?

All that does is make me want to hit you with a bat.

Screaming and yelling does not help the fight,

Just shut up I don't want to hear this all night.

I wish you would treat me like a real man should,

I know you wouldn't do it even if you could.

All I want is for you to love me and hold me tight,

That way for once I could feel that things are right.
