N/A

    You lied to me when you said you "respect" me;

I showed you my weakest side, and

you took advantage of my vulnerability.

you humiliated me for your own pleasure;

you tormented me for someone eles's doing,

yet I came back for more.

    You watched with excitment as I cry

then told me you "care",

you rejected my voice, yet

my silence irritated you?

These were all warning signs

which I failed to acknowledge.

    I was belittled and I knew it,

you had the upperhand and you used it.

You took advantage because you knew the strength I possessed,

the strength I failed to realize;

you took advantage, and

I'm ready to speak on it.
