Never Love Me Again
63
You lied when you said you wouldn’t wake me
You woke me anyways
I heard the shower
And I knew you were in there
Washing away your sins
Everything terrible was a sin to you
But you wouldn’t rectify the problem
By marrying me
Because I didn’t believe in your god
You left me alone in bed
To ask for forgiveness at the church
Like they could absolve all of your sins
A lifetime of drinking
Drugs
Treating women like animals and objects
And now,
Suddenly,
You got on your self-righteous high horse
Leaving the booze and pot behind
Leaving me in the dust
As the horse took off
To lead a new life of absolution
I was nothing but a sinner
A whore
Someone who you chewed up and spit out
Wasting all these years of my life
That I thought were meaningful
But now you brought god in
And chose to live a life with him instead
Leaving me alone, empty
But I am not full of sins,
Like you are
I am me
Take me as I am
All my good and bad
I will never ask for your forgiveness
I will never ask for you to love me again

Jami, Thanks for your comments. I was actually just having this conversation today about man being responsible for corrupting the earth, not god. Thanks for reading!
This is a great poem, you know men use too much of thier emotions sometimes, if he knew its a sin and there is a God, why in first place he would date? this is the question I ask myself when I see a situation like this. This is very sad and upsetting I hope one day men who do such a thing realize that hurting someone and breaking someone's heart is a bigger sin than loving someone truly

Man is to blame , not God. The man chose wicked and devious ways against you , God , took that man away from you and gave you peace. Believe it or not , .people are better off without the forced destruction in their lives. :)
