I told you so

You didn’t listen
I don’t mean to boast
Really I don’t
But you should have listened to me
You know I’m right
Even when I’m wrong
Even when I don’t understand
Even when I haven’t been listening
Because you’re always wrong
Even when you’re right
Even when you try to explain
Even when I ignore you
I told you so

Perhaps, this is an interesting aside, but a friend pointed out to me that I very rarely write poetry from another perspective, other than my own, or perhaps from the perspective of the narrator. Here's an interesting poem I wrote in 2009 that is from the perspective of the abuser.
