Nobody should be a dumping ground
But In my slump I found
I lashed out at you
I trashed you too
Because of
Previous lost love
I was down in the dumps
Under the mower
Instead of lifting you up
I pulled you lower
I blamed it on being grumpy
But that was no excuse
I had no reason not to put love
To good use
I jumped on you with devotional glee
And dumped on you emotionally
I knew better than to be
A heartless thumping sound
Nobody should have to be
A dumping ground
You took your lumps
So many now
And you loved me anyhow
What was wrong with me?
What was wrong with you?
We were dysfunctional
And as dysfunction grew
The dumping grounds
On which I set course
In time became
Grounds for divorce
