Who am I?
I never seem to know,
Then you call me names and then tell me you love me.

The kindest words leave your lips,
After the most abrasive actions.
Sometimes, I just cry.

Who are you?
And why do I care?
You misuse love,
You mistreat me.

Retract yourself,
Because I no longer want you.
The pain you've provided stings me.
The hurt you've brought has scarred me.

This poem shows a lot of emotion.   I'm so sorry that you feel this way though.  Let him go, he ain't worth the trouble.  I know it's easy to say and hard to do.  Keep writing and I'm looking forward to reading more of your poems

I couldn't agree with you more.  When a person is mistreating you in any kind of relationship, it is time to remove that person from your life.  Good luck!!

I liked your poem. I think a person should never mistreat another person. I have a say I agree with acire & jacman. I hope to read more of your poems.

Powerful expressions and message here Jenn. I'm glad you realize that you need to remove yourself from this unhappy situation. No one should be treated or made to feel this way. Hope to read more!

Best wishes,
/Kit

You know, he's so strange. I kind of figured out somewhere along the line that he was hurting me. Teasing, pressuring, just overall messing w/ me. Some characteristics were stereotypical NBC movie specials you know? But then when we were in the midst of a stretched out break-up, he was hurt I could possibly feel used, and that I took the teasing so seriously. I just know that the bad outweighed the good, and having been used or not... I need to be out. I refuse to believe that people are inately bad, I just know there are certain ones I can't be with.
Thanks for listening. And for the comments.

This poem shows so much strength.  Many times when people get themselves into relationships that are not good for them, they stay even though it is hurting them more than leaving.  You show so much strength for realizing that this relationship was not the one for you.  Great poem and I cant wait to read more.
