"Deserve Me Not"

The sound of his voice
is like nails on a chalk board
The look in his eyes
is one of misdirected anger
He looks at me and
sees everyone who has ever hurt him
And for those people, I must pay the price
I will no longer be
his excuse, his punching bag or his way out
I will no longer try to be
his support, his motherly figure or his friend
The abuse that I have let him inflict
will be no more
I owe him nothing -
not my life or my love
For he is not deserving.
