Stop

Stop

A Poem by lynne

 

Don't tell me what to do.

I've heard you before.

The words in your mouth

come out too often.

Don't tell me who to be.

Believe it or not

I'm fine with who I am.

 

So if you'd stop and think

for a moment

about the things that you

said to me,

then maybe you

could see for a moment

exactly who

you've turned out to be.

You used to cry

when I walked out the door.

You used to smile

when I came back home.

And all the while

I was laughing and happy

because I thought

I knew who you are.

 

So why are you angry

with who I am?

Why do you stand there

and shout my name?

You should know

that I'm not an angel,

but a girl

with a life of her own.

 

So leave me out.

Leave me out of your life.

I don't wanna be a part of it.

I'd rather be alone.

And cut it out.

stop telling me how to live.

I can take care of myself.

 

Living with you

is like living with God.

He makes all the rules

and

he writes them all himself

and he knows how

every little thing works.

You don't know me.

And you never did.

But I'm not surprised

because you never even tried.

 

So just stop.

Stop trying so hard.

Your trying not to lose

your mind to your heart.

I know now.

I know who you are.

I know that your possessive

and danger to us all.

So just stop.

Stop screwing with my head.

Your words are really strong

and I'm starting to get sick of it.
