Change Comes From Within Poem by Yazmin Rosario

You say this is you
And who you are
The habits and behavior has gotten too far
Crying each time wanting to leave
But knowing I can't
Its because of your love that I breathe
Wanting to change you for the better
but you rage out in anger
& call it whatever
Tell me to leave and find another
That I am too much and only bother
I've gotten in this too far,
My heart rips in two
Now thinking its me not even you..
I want to stop
& give up on it all
Let you do whatever it is you wanna do
Act numb and not even care
Because sometimes you act like my heart isn't even there
An empty shell will remain
A loaded gun too
You will still act like there is nothing to even lose
Because it seems that the drugs you would still choose
But she loves you regardless
Way too much even said that all this
She will keep in her head
Perhaps soon enough you'll turn around
And realize that true love was already found
