I Realized Too Late

Contributed by PrincessJen on Friday, 16th September 2005 @ 11:44:58 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



I remember his eyes
So full of hate
I finally realize
But now it's too late

My mind is tired
My body weak
My souls disintegrating
My eyes-they just weep

I love him so much
I can't seem to let go
I'm not sure I even want to
My mind says yes, my heart no

I make wrong choices
Some of the time
But what can I do
My heart controls my mind

I can't forget
The love we once had
I just wish I knew
Why he was always so mad

I went out of my way
To show my love and loyalty
All I got in return
Was anger and cruelty

But I forgave and forgave
And loved him endlessly
Even after he took everything I had-
Even after he hit me

When I remember his eyes
They're so full of hate
I wish I had realized
But now it's too late

Sometimes I wonder
If I took things too far
But then I remember
All the incidents in the car

All the fear I felt
All the tears I cried
Day after day
A piece of me died

Time went on
I was in denial
I was no longer trying to escape
It was a game of survival

Things got worse
I was in fear all the time
It wasn't my heart anymore-
It was him who controlled my mind

I couldn't take anymore
So I got help the first chance I got
His grandfather called 911
And then they fought

I'll never forget
His grandmothers scream
The police....the ambulance
They haunt my dreams

Now he is gone
But I still feel the pain
I've lost myself
I feel I have nothing to gain

I try to be happy
But I'm sad everyday
I feel this nightmare won't end..........
I feel I'm slowly fading away

I can still see his eyes
So full of hate
If only I had realized
Before it was too late
