Value...I have it

Value...I have it

A Poem by LuxPhoenixAmare
"

About the relationship I'm in/ending

"
You don't understand me,
But perhaps someday you will.
You are confounded by me,
though I'll make sense someday.
You say I have no patience,
When you're the one who can't wait.
You say I'm demanding,
When you always must direct the show.
You say I'm a brat, 
When everything I've given seems to have no meaning.
You say I am uneconomical,
Then spend an obscene amount of money on electronics.
You tell me to get out more, 
Knowing I can't, 
And clipping my wings.
You blame me for every flaw,
and never praise the accomplishments.
You treat me like a burden,
And no longer see the blessing.
My devotion isn't good enough.
My monogamy isn't good enough.
My never-ending love isn't good enough.
My fight to get better isn't good enough.
My victories aren't good enough.
My skills aren't good enough.
My creativity and magic aren't good enough.
In the end, I'm not good enough in your eyes.
This is not my fault, because I AM good enough.
I am beyond great and wonderful enough.
But I am not what you want anymore, so you blame me.
You tear me down, though I do not keep you from other lovers.
You see ever flaw, so you don't have to feel guilty when you hurt me.
You see ever excuse to tell yourself it's okay to push me away,
to ignore me, to neglect me, to live in other life without me.
I haven't been easy, but when it comes down to it,
I have loved you beyond anything I ever knew possible,
And continue to do so.
Stop judging me, and start accepting my beauty.
You see all the wrong things when you look at me,
because it's not "convenient" for you,
And you break my heart.
I'm worth your love.
However, the way you've been acting, 
perhaps you are not worth mine.
