Bend me over

La’Gayla cook

Bend me over

Bend me over why don’t yhu?

That’s how yhu seem to like me.

On my knees and begging,

Ever so softly.

I hate the way yhu treat me.

With utter disrespect.

There’s no room for what I’m saying.

Yhur always on to the next.

It’s hard being a lion with the heart of a kitten.

I love to love

But loving yhu

Has just been soooo unforgiving.

I’ve done everything that I can.

I’m not sure what more I can do.

But I’m so tired of being bent over.

By the person that is yhu.

I thought that yhu loved me?

I remember yhu said yhu cared.

So why when I need yhu

yhu never seem to be there.

I’ve been bent over by my family.

Hell even my friends.

Some friendships I thought were never ending

Came to an abrupt end.

I was sad to see them go.

But my back has started to straighten

I feel much better in my soul.

Something’s aren’t forsaken.

Bent over is what I once was.

But now I am not.

I am grateful for all I have.

Even the things I do not.
