Babe, am I worth it

Do I deserve to be treated like,

a trash💔

I love you unconditionally

But you keep on hurting my feelings

You punch me everyday💔

You smile while I frown😊

When I try to give that smile back,

you slap me

I am in pains

Look you are hurting me💔

You bring prostitutes into our house

When I talk, you beat me

My heart is bleeding

I feel like I’m losing my soul💔

But I don’t mind cause I love you💔

I lost so much blood

Why do you keep on doing this

Is this the love that you promised,

to give me

Let me go

Mockers are mocking me each,

and everyday 💔

Ohh ouch!!

Don’t touch me, I’m in pain 💔

My ancestors are now calling me

I’m tired of your fake love

No one will let you do what you’ve done,

to me 💔

But I was patient cause I knew that,

real love needs patience

Look now, you feel sorry

You think your sorry will bring you back,

the real me💔

You believe your sorry will be eliminated,

These scars on my face

I can’t cope because of you, dammit

Depression control me

I don’t know why I am living

Your love is suicidal

I hate you, boy

You are a gift and curse

I don’t need to hear your sorry

You deserve to live with animals,

you are a coward 💔

I hate the fact that I loved you
