Death by Control
Poetry About Unhealthy Relationships
I cannot live
I cannot die
Nothing to give
You don’t even try
You take me in
You push me out
You make me spin
You end my route
It’s the way we live our lives
Your lips on mine
Your words unkind
My love is real
What is my deal
Why can't I see
In front of me
My love is blind
I trip and fall
Fall far behind
A wall so tall
I cannot climb
I sink down low into this hole
Depression lies within my soul
My heart so torn but beats for you
I miss the warn and stay so true
To a liar who makes me feel
Like an emotional wreck
Angry and happy and sad is real
Doubt myself and lose my treck
My path is gone
Your intentions wrong
You hold me close
To hurt me most
Circles and circles again
I’m losing all of my friends
One by one you take them away
Telling me lies to make me play
Your scary mind games
Are all I ever know
My rage is in flames
I act so low
Myself I cannot recognise
You get me to try and try
Yet you do nothing
The ropes tightening
And you watch me struggle
My body weakening
You let me fumble
Suicidal maniac
You laugh at me
And I don’t fight back
You don’t let me be
You watch as I’m killing myself
And I slowly slowly die
My memory fades on the shelf
Of the controlling guy
You really killed me
You're to blame
I died as your thing
A Helpless dame
Never forget
What you harmfully did
Because regret
Might change the way you live
