Why do we?
Why do women who are princesses and highly favored,
allow ourselves to be put down by the men in our lives?
Why do we subject ourselves, our emotions, our educated intellect,
our very souls to be inhibited by controlling men that are not worth our time??
Why are we attracted to these type of men?
Why are our very beings ripped apart
like swine at a feeding trough?
Why do we stay?
Why do I stay?
In the hope that someday, someday
my chosen man will change? HA.
In the knowledge or preception that all men
are like this? Not my brother, not my son, not my dad.
Why am I attracted to this man?
He won't hold a job,
but he holds me under his thumb.
He won't let me have my own money,
and he won't pay my bills, much less his.
He won't let me work,
says he will, but usually keeps me from it.
What is wrong with me?
Is it me or is my preception screwed
by the scenery that I have lived with.
Why can't I get out and stay out?
Why do I feel sorry for him,
he acts like a child, because he has never became a man.
So, the real ? is: Why do I really stay?
Is it the subtle threats?
Is it the once in a blue moon that he is nice?
Is it the rarity of true communication?
Someone asked: What do you get out of your relationship?
I had nothing to say. What do I say? Why do I stay?
I love him, but I don't. What does that mean?
What will it take to truly make me walk away?
No turning back, no thinking,"I wonder if he is okay today"
He will be okay, because he will find someone else to deal this on to.
So for all of us, like me,
why do we?
