Sitting with tears rolling down my face,
The salt taste strongly on my lips,
I hear you make a promise I know you will never keep...
Why do you do this to me?

We laugh,
We fight,
We kiss,
We scream,
Our life seems to be ripping at the seems.

I love you with all my heart,
My soul can only bear so much,
I cry as you fail to do as you said,
I lay on our bed and pray,
That one day,
You will change...

You drink till I do not like you,
You drink till you are mad,
You drink and that is our problem,
Your drink is more important to you than me,
Or so it would seem...

STOP IT!
I want to scream,
And eventually I do!

Your killing our relationship,
You are killing our trust,
Your breaking my heart....

If this was a friends situation,
I would tell them to leave,
The abuse is not worth it,
The stress is not worth it,
The lies are not worht it,
The emptiness you feel is not worth it,
You diserve so much better,
So much more...

But it is me,
And I can't leave..

I love you....

I wish you loved me...

You do I know,
Under that drunken outer skin,

But rarely it seems,
Do I see that you,
Rarely do I feel like you love me....

I cry,
You seem not care,
I cry you laugh,
I cry,
I suffer....

YOU DRINK!

In the dark I sit,
While you sleep,
A drunken sleep,
Sound and unmoving,
I sit and think,
What is it that made me fall in love with you...

It was the simple things,
Your honesty,
Your loyalty,
Your understanding,
Just you being you,
But tragedy struck,
And with it I seem to have lost you....

I hope that you will learn what you are doing,
To me,
To you,
To your family,
WE ALL MISS YOU!

I hope one day soon the drink will loose,
And once again,
It is I who will make you happy!
