Leaving For Good

It’s a poem about a girl who commits suicide after her ex boyfriend beat her…
You stole my heart, told me you felt the same.
You taught me everything, about playing the game.
But when we fight, you say I’m the one to blame.
So I’m leaving for good, to save myself the shame.

You left me lonely, and I didn’t know what to do.
Your words were painful, and I hoped they were untrue.
I thought about what you had said, and I trusted you.
So I’m leaving for good, 'cause your love is overdue.

I feel the pain, as the blade falls to the wood.
I don't want to have to be a know one, who would.
I wish you'd understand me, but I was misunderstood.
Now my life’s ending, and I’m leaving for good.

Every time we speak, we always disagree.
All I ever wanted to do, was make you happy.
I'm taking my life, while I lie here and bleed.
I'm leaving for good, 'cause you're killing me.

You got me in trouble, lead me down a bad road.
You put weight on my shoulders, you make me carry a big load.
I called for help, but my words just echoed.
So I’m leaving for good, 'cause I’m ready to explode.

You beat me with your fists, I thought I was dead.
Pain crept through me, as I lay there and bled.
I shouted at you to stop, I pled and pled.
Now I’m leaving for good, 'cause you filled me with dread.

The hurt you caused my life, is more than I can explain.
The things you have done to me, have driven me insane.
I feel light and dizzy, as I lie in this bloodstain.
I'm leaving for good, to relieve my suffering and pain.

I've cut my vain, to get out of this life.
I'm lying here to die, next to my knife.
It’s your fault people look at me and think I’m a low life.
So I’m leaving for good, to put an end to this strife.
