Motivation To do whats right You're with me every single night In my head You're in my dreams In my bed Under my sheets Inspiration To live this life You haunt me every single night A part of me I'm forced to see I cannot go I will not leave Separation What's wrong or right You hurt me every single night Call me names And spit on me Always screaming How it should be Confrontation Draw the line I promise this, it's our last night Falling short Of everything When I'm with you I can't be me Emily Shives 12/30/09 |

I like the pattern, how the poem builds on itself. "You deserve better" [than him] sounds cliche, but even when they are overspoken, certain truths remain irrefutable. |
