Bandaids

Time  
It comes and it goes  
Something’s aren’t meant to last forever  
What started off as I love you  
Slowly turned to I hate you  
Or maybe I hate myself  
For loving you so much  
You’ve torn me down and broken me  
For that I should be grateful  
Or so you remind me  
I deserved it it’s all my fault  
Or so you remind me  
You stripped me of my pride  
You stripped me of my dignity  
And between the bruises  
I love yous meant like bandaids  
But they don’t band do they  
And through it all  
My pain and suffering  
You remind me that I deserved it  
That worthless is cut deep into me  
As it should be  
That bitch is normal and disappointing you comes easy  
That black, blue and yellow covers my skin so beautifully  
And through it  
I love yous meant like bandaids  
All to be reminded that they didn’t love you now did they.
