You Hurt Me

"You're just obsessive", 

You spat it out like a second hand curse,

How come I'm not worthy of 

Your worn out trust, like her converse 

Filled with holes, the glue coming undone 

You think I haven't worked for love,

But I'm the one holding onto us 

Grasping in the dark to tell you everything 

Watching your eyes go soft, then angry 

Because when you touched me 

I was reduced to weakness 

A puddle of blood on the floor,

Knife in my side, your hand inches away 

Shifting into a higher gear, plunging 

Deeper into my fear, twisting the blade around 

Until I can't breathe; what did you want from me?
