great to see 3 newbs dropping some feedback in.
maybe the title could say just a bit more. i'm getting an incredulous feeling as to why she stays. on the other hand there's a sexist put down of the woman that works within the way a lot of guys are with women. it asks questions, i'd like to see an odd answer. even a rhetorical one. that said, the poem isn't bad, i enjoyed the read. it's great that you're managing to get some poetry in.

to make me feel as if I have won something
when you knuckle under to my oppression
in spite of your body

instead of just leaving
so you can find someone who will lie to you
like any real lover would not sure this line works because it doesn't feel true. any real lover would surely tell the truth?
