When you love someone you work very hard, You try to do everything you can, You work hard, Try your very best. But why? Why should I have to work at anything? If it is love should it not be unconditional? Why can't you love me unconditionally? I have for you, I looked past all your faults, I saw only the good in you, The love of life, The heart and soul, The caring kind and sensitive person. But that wasn't you. It was simply a charade. You masked all of your emotions, Showing only those most desirable, You showed me your hurting, wounded side. You did not show me your controlling and domineering ways. But now I see them. They have become crystal clear to me now, You must be in control. I can't have that. I cannot allow you to control my every move. I cannot give you the power over me to drive my emotions. You will not. Try all you want I am not going to allow it. I will overcome your insecurities, To push myself forward, I will survive. Despite you. You are through. It is over. You will control me no more. Goodbye.
