*COUNTDOWN*

10. You got "ten" minutes ...to step out that door,
and I never want to see, your black ***** no more.

09. "nine" minutes left...and I'm about to shout,
so spare me the drama, and get the hell out.

08. "eight" years of lying, yet I pushed it aside,
you got your wheels outside...get in it, and ride.

07. Now you're down to "seven" minutes, and you seem to look lost,
but when you tamper with "Queen-ness" ...one must pay the cost.

06. Out of every year, "six" months of them... I'm crying,
I'm tired of all the stupid *****...I'm tired of slowly dying.

05. "five" times I tried to leave...but your power took over,
all these years, I was high on you, but today I'm mighty sober.

04. You got "four" minutes to go, do you have your clothes pack?
you have pumped my heart dry...and there's no turning back.

03. Do you remember when we were.. "three" steps from the alter?
and you promised my dad, you'd take good care of his daughter?

02. We had "two" hearts rolled into one...and you took my heart for granted,
but I'll find true love again...somewhere on this planet.

01. You got "one" minute, to beg me...to let you stay,
but I can't take no more ********* ...so be on your way!

0. Nothing "0" is what you brought to the door...
and I can't take it, can't take it, can't take it...no more.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. And if anybody knows that to be true its me. Remarkable, display of your emotions.

hmm, he sure was dumb to tamper with the queen-ness, yeah let em know, lol,

girl, this poem was not only entertaining, it had it's own rhythm, which made the meaning that much more deep

that poem needed no critiqueing at all.

As I read this piece I find it hard to contain myself I wanna jump in the car and come over their and beat somebody down whewww.

I can feel the pain, the agony and the victory when the brother goes out the door. Very nice indeed.
