Changed Me Poem

Changed me- August 15th, 2008 10:44 am Friday

You once were attracted to the feisty strong independent woman I was.

You loved how bold and blunt I was.

And that I didn’t take anyone’s crap.

You said my beauty couldn’t be matched by any other.

You liked that I dressed sexy, and said you wouldn’t have me any other way.

Then we moved in together, and all that changed.

You told me I shouldn’t lure you in to bed with my body.

That I shouldn’t show any skin.

Every time I tried to say something you made me feel so dumb.

You controlled what I wore, what I did, what I said, even what I ate.

You completely changed me.

I became this robot that you controlled.

You made me in to the girl you thought you wanted me to be.

I was no longer the woman you once claimed you were drawn to.

All we ever did was argue.

You broke me spirit and my heart.

I was totally dependent on you for everything it’s no wonder why I fell apart when you left.

I was nothing without you, a zombie.

I had to figure out who I was all over again.

It’s been a year since you completely changed me, and I’m still trying to figure out just who I truly am.

Now if a man wants me he has to except me for me.

No man will ever have control over me again.

I will never change me to please a man again.
