I guess you're worth something

I'm trying to decide if you're even worth the words
   I have built up in my heart.

I'm trying to decide if you're worth all the hate
   I have in store for you.

I'm trying to remember if I even thought about
   if you were worth my trust,
   Before I let you into me.

I'm trying to remember what made me think
   you weren't a snake,
   like all the other men I know,
   that are just like you.

I'm trying to remind myself that you're not worth
   the jail sentence I would get if I did what I wanted to
   with you.

I'm trying to picture your face,
   as I beat you down,
   and make you feel as humiliated as I do.

I'm trying to decide if you're even worth the karma
   that I know you're gonna get one day....
   really soon.

I'm trying to ignore that little smirk on your face
   when I pass you by.

I'm trying to remind myself,
   that one day you'll get yours,
   and then, maybe... I can forget about it.

I'm thinking back,
   and I guess you must be worth something
   if I could write about you.
I know this poem is bad, really crappy.... but to tell you the truth it made me feel better to write it, even if it was just a small bit of stress off my shoulders. Still doesn't help with the hatred I feel toward this guy, and it really isn't helping me convince myself he's not worth a good baseball bat to the face... but I feel a tiny bit better now.

Wow, this isn't terribly bad, at all. I can totally relate to this piece, word for word. I feel like sending it to my ex, actually. Describes how I've been feeling for the past month and a half now. He used me, in a way, and left me after a year and two months. He left me for a girl who's almost four years younger than him, and they've never met. I could wo report him, but I won't. He will get his karma, and what comes around goes around. I just really can feel your anger and resentment in this. Beautifully written, and I sincerely love it. :)
