I believed all the lies
I fell for your fake love like Humpty Dumpty falling off the wall.
I dealt with your constant abuse and gave you the power to make me feel small.
Why did I do that to myself?
I ate up your lies like Alice in wonderland,
But you had no warning label and I ate more than my stomach could withstand.
Why did I do that to myself?
I was consumed with a desire to touch you like sleeping beauty lead by a curse.
I feared that the next time I left the house would be in a hearse.
Why did I do that to myself?
You controlled my like Ursula when she stole Ariels voice.
They asked me why I stayed and I felt I had no choice.

Find the one that fights like you do for love. If you can't, then all you have to love you is you. I'm not trying to be vague, but it's all I have when it comes to love parasites. Thank you for sharing, trust me, we have all been here.
