• I say something
    STUPID!
    He turns away.
    I hurt him.

    I cry and he doesn't
    CARE!
    Physical pain
    Distracts me momentarily.

    I keep saying I'm
    SORRY!
    He doesn't listen,
    Doesn't forgive.

    I try to hold back from
    JUMPING!
    He locks the doors.
    Like he knows.

    I want to
    DIE!
    He says
    I forgive you.

    I
    HATE
    Myself.
    I caused him pain.

    I caused him to
    SMOKE
    Again.
    My fault.

    I showed him my
    SCARS
    He was horrified
    I hurt myself.

    I never let him
    KNOW
    I almost jumped.
    I won't tell him.

    I will
    NEVER
    Cause him pain
    Again!

    He was
    UPSET
    He hurt me.
    I feel horrible.

    He
    LOVES
    Me more
    Than I deserve.

    He wondered
    WHY
    I said that.
    I explained.

    He
    COMFORTED
    Me.
    I hate myself.

    He is
    TRYING
    To make it better.
    Maybe he will.

    He said
    SORRY!
    He smoked.
    It hurt me.

    He will
    STOP!
    He thinks
    He can.

    He
    WILL!
    I will help him
    Through.

    He will
    LIVE!
    Long and fully.
    With me.

    He is
    MINE!
    And he will be,
    forever!
