This is My Goodbye
As we continued to fall down the slippery slope
I began to realize that what I had gotten myself into
Was a pile of rotten dogshit
Every time I gave you a compliment
You would turn it around
Flip it upside down
And find some cockamamie way of insulting me
Well I am here today writing this poem for you
To let you know that I aint going to put up with your bullshit
Anymore, I aint going to let you ware me down
This is my goodbye
My final word to a cunt like you
I began to realize that what I had gotten myself into
Was a pile of rotten dogshit
Every time I gave you a compliment
You would turn it around
Flip it upside down
And find some cockamamie way of insulting me
Well I am here today writing this poem for you
To let you know that I aint going to put up with your bullshit
Anymore, I aint going to let you ware me down
This is my goodbye
My final word to a cunt like you

Straight to business.
'As we continued to fall down the slippery slope
[Wonderful image to start with. IMO 'slide' would work better along with 'slippery'. Just a suggestion]
I began to realize that what I had gotten myself into
Was a pile of rotten dogshit
[We jump from a mild one to a mound of gunpowder. Graphic and brutal. You may consider altering the CAPs at the start of every sentence to maintain a steady flow. JMHO.]
Every time I gave you a compliment
You would turn it around
Flip it upside down
And find some cockamamie way of insulting me
[Baam! It explodes. Splinters. Genuine angst and the reader feels it.
Well I am here today writing this poem for you
To let you know that I aint going to put up with your bullshit
Anymore, I aint going to let you ware me down
[I love the use of colloquial language in this poem. Makes it raw and helps it bleed better.
I believe 'ware' should be 'wear'.]
This is my goodbye
My final word to a cunt like you
[A sense of finality. A nine inch nail.
I took the liberty to tweak it a bit. Let me know what you thought of it.
'This is goodbye
my final word to you

Happy writing Nathan,

If this had some rhyming, it would sound like Dylan around the time of "Idiot Wind". He wouldn' have said cunt though. Or would He?
