Because Of You

You slap my face,

And wonder why I bleed.

I only meant to tease.

You yell at me,

And wonder why I’m deaf.

I’m not the cause of your stress.

You ignore me,

And wonder why I’m cold.

I don’t deserve your scold.

You squeeze my throat,

And wonder why I don’t speak.

I am not the pain you seek.

You break my heart,

And wonder why I cry.

It’s because of you that I will die.
