No Courage

The whispers follow me everywhere,

What have you done now?

I'm so used to this behaviour,

I no longer question it.

Love seems to have no luck for me,

I always choose the wrong guys.

People are staring, laughing, giggling,

Thinking I've brought this on myself.

I probably have.

I've got into the habit of blaming me,

For all your stupid mistakes.

Yet I always seem to forgive you,

I just can't seem to say no.

I wish I had the strength,

To walk away from you.

But your words are so persuasive,

You're branded into my heart.

I wish I could tell the truth,

To all these people laughing.

How you make me feel like crap,

Hurt me when you want,

Don't think about my feelings,

Or want I want to do.

I wish I could tell them all,

How I want to walk away,

But every time I feel your hand on mine,

I know you've caught me again.
