She Loved Me…

She said she loved me

Over and over and over again

I demanded I asked

“When did the feelings stop —

When did you stop loving me”

She said she loved me still

Over and over and over again

But how…?

I got happier and stronger and

Smarter and fitter and

I got a job that is going to take me somewhere

And all she ever did

Was get afraid, get jealous, get insecure

How could she love me when she is so busy

Being scared? Scared to lose me

Scared to keep me

She just loved being in control of me

She loved me as her favorite toy, I think.
