The Step I Have To Take

The Step I Have To Take

A Poem by SJ

How many chances before you call it a day?

How many lies have I got to hear before I get my say?

I’m hearing so much nonsense

Boy don’t you have a conscience

Can’t you see what you’re doing to me?

A romantic gesture, on bended knee

That isn’t going to help you now

I can’t even scream about that other cow

You’ve reduced me to petty name calling

I wish I’d known when you had me falling

That I wouldn’t be your only

The last to call when you got lonely

I won’t be running back

I refuse to let the tears leave tracks

I’m turning my back on you

And everything you say you will do

Your words mean nothing

I’m just going to concentrate on living

This is the step I have to take

Even if it means my heart will break
