"A matter of time" i saw you in the doctors office when i was about to pay, we exchanged hellos, but there was nothing more to say. even then i knew it was just a matter of time, before i made you mine. we had lots of fun together, and soon we were engaged, it was then you started treating me like a dog, and my soul became caged. i wouldnt get out, yet i was living in hell, you would hurt me then hug me, the possesive mans spell. and everytime i fell for it, would could i do? walk away,when i needed and loved you? then in my eyes, the pain started to show,every corner i turned i'd wonder, do they know? it was all just a matter of time before they noticed, no one was blind. you trashed my life, hate me then love me, it was becoming rountine, but you didnt know i was planning so my life could be redeemed. you said you were gonna take my life, and not to bother to run, because i would never be free, each passing day i woud wither more over all the things you said and done to me. i was going downhill fast, and losing my mind, each swinging hand you passed,it was just a matter of time. over a year and half passed, of tears and pleas before i finally left you behind, you should have listened to me when i told you it was just a matte of time.

shannon, you may want to try pressing enter at the end of each line, instead of running them together...I can see the rhyme patterns, but it's difficult to read if all the sentences are smushed together. |
