"Turmoil" ©
By Telisa Blackman
If I remain passive while you yell and scream
is that defined as weak, or a cowardly thing?
Shall I be at your side to receive your commands
and if I move to slow will you get angry again?
See I bend when it's called for, I give in just for you
I take the blame when I'm right, and I call all your lies truths.
Until the end of time I'm suppose to stick by you
and I'm suppose to care no matter what transpires
I'm suppose to work late and come straight home to you
I'm to wash, clean, and cook with a cheerful attitude
It's o.k. if I'm breaking. it's cool if I crack
It's alright if I'm weary, you won't cut me any slack
Your not upset because I'm tired and work two jobs a week
your not concerned with how you treat me as long as I'm yours for keeps
I've never allowed you to hit me, I'd leave enraged
yet I've allowed you to destroy me emotionally,
I'm a dove that's been caged.
So today I decided that I'd say goodbye
I figured I'd spread my wings doves are suppose to fly.
