Under My Skin.

Under my skin lies blood,veins, and you stabbing at my broken heart which is now barely beating
After all the advice I still let you get under my skin
Knowing you have control over me makes me feel disgusted within
You call me and I go over stupidly
Why do you consistently feel the need to play games with me?
Maybe I’m Ernestine’s definition to insanity
I keep trusting you and expecting you to change
And remain shocked when you disappoint me
I was so happy when I got you jealous at the party because having something over you excites me
Shame it took other people to assist me, and you only have to say 3 words to control me
I tell myself it was more than your looks I fell for, but I can’t think of one trait in your personality I adore
My mother says there’s others you just need to give them a chance
But if you wanted me back again they wouldn’t get a second glance
You’re the only guy I’d ever give a second chance
Yet you don’t want it
or maybe you know this is the best way to control me
and secretly...you love it.

Hi lorii....really enjoyed reading this poem. Totally feel it , as I've been apart of that madness, it's a silent torture that torments the soul and I often wonder , the power of someone's control. It's a cruel way of loving someone and not letting them go....thanks for the insight, it really makes you think ,about the power of love!!!frustrated smitten dunno confused cheers hug handshake

Hmm I Dont see it going away until you fall in love with someone else all over again! Most women tend to let their men control over them ,so what they lost is their rights and their mind! So the sooner you get over it and move on the better but it's not easy .good luck lori hug

Yes that's true and your pretty much right morgen accept men are the controlling force but it's about woman also embarrassing there control and making it a equal union....it's fulfilling both needs so keep that in mind, hopefully time will heal, those love painsxxcomfort cheers thumbs up

There are so many insecure men out there. That guy with the orange-red hair would have been in a different place if he had a girl in his life. The one thing with all people is do not expect them to change, but at the same time you don't have to be their doormat either.teddybear joy
