Love Poem: Mistreated By the One I Love

Mistreated By the One I Love

She was the love of my life
But was never much of a wife
Which caused a whole lot of strife
Her hatred cut through my heart like a surgical knife
Once full of life now praying for a change in life
The love faded as the hate invaded
My thoughts persuaded while my presence was degraded
Always making me feel like you downgraded
All along my soul forever shaded

Wishing I knew the reason I was hated Or why the feelings were abated Dreaming of the day that I will be extricated We were definitely mismated What a fool as I stand here life deflated Can only hope it will be mended Its always myself I'm defending Time to stop pretending No more room for bending The unrelenting ending is impending
