When Does A Man Become A Monster?

Pain That’s all I feel lately. Regret. Shame. Loneliness. That’s all I feel lately. I hang my head. My heart aches. My stomach turns. My sobs quake. I remember a time when he would whisper sweet nothings. Now I cant forget how he screams venom. He stares at me with hate. I have done nothing. His issues. Guilt. Frustrations. Emotions. All taken out on me In a sea of fury. I try to empathize. I try to understand. I try to comfort. I try to be everything that you need Yet ignoring my own needs. At what point is this just insanity? I try and help and you push and yell. I fight FOR us and you. fight. me. I build you up and you tear me down. I comfort when you are in need And yet I am left to hug myself Wipe my own tears While you mock me.. When do I say enough is enough? When do I give up on love? When does a man go from someone I love to my past? When does a man become a monster?
