Plagiarism

Sometimes I sit and wonder,
Why I even bother,
When you appreciate me so much,
You choose to rather,

Steal a piece of my soul,
Something that doesn't mean,
Half as much to you as it does to me,
It's an agony you have never seen,

Why should I pour out my heart?
And let you see me bleed?
Why should I sit back and allow you,
To perform your heartless deed?

My life has been put down in writing,
Sometimes I even cry,
But now I sit here in silence,
Asking myself why,

I do appreciate the fact,
That you love a part of me,
Yet stealing it for your own uses,
Is something that's not right to me.

I think that you are wrong,
I think I've had enough,
Why do we all choose to love,
When all it is is rough?

It bruises your ego,
And it tears apart you soul,
I've shattered into a million pieces,
Who will catch me as I fall?

This is wrong and you know it,
How can you not?
Your thoughtlessness has caged me,
Yet I refuse to remain caught.

Whatever you do, it does not matter,
I will whisper to myself the truth,
This is something we must all learn,
It's comes with the failings of youth.

So as I whisper my goodbyes,
I will not pause or even stare,
I will not beg. I will not cry,
I will just ignore that broken tare,

That you placed upon my heart,
When you committed an act so low,
A crime you should never have done,
Something that makes me hate you so,

You should know I will not allow myself,
To stand quietly in the rain,
When I was the one who was missing them,
I was the one who went through the pain,

Don't you even dare forget,
That I was the one pouring out her soul,
I was the one enduring loss of a friend,
A distinction that you should know.
