My heart lies bleeding,
In your open palm.
It’s really hurting,
Yet, I stay calm.
My sanity needs a check,
To stick with you through all.
Weekly, you cash my paycheck,
I’d rather spend it at the mall.
The pain you cause
Is immeasurable.
Moving around like a boss,
You’re incorrigible.
All earnings are used,
My feelings played with.
Allowing myself to be abused,
My love for you is no myth.
