Abused

You were in pieces, like broken bottles, I should have left you in peace

Your heart was dark, like the bottomless pit, I should have left you damned

Your fists were tight, like you were holding on to life, I shouldn’t have let you feast

You were double minded, like a two-edged sword, I shouldn’t have let you strike

I was naïve, like a fool at forty; I shouldn’t have walked into those chains

I had so many cheerleaders but you were never one

I was your sunshine, you were my solar eclipse

I wished you success you, you put me down

I was slow to notice but the manipulations of your sorcery became apparent

I was your Ruth, you were my Delilah

You tried to drown me, but you found me floating

In rage, you dug my pit, but you couldn’t bury me

And then you dragged me in your mud and unlike swine, I got stained

I was distraught but cleaned me up, got up to go

And then I found your misery loves company, you wouldn’t make that easy

You said you loved me, it’s a shame I gave my trust

You said you cared, it’s your shame you lied

Your lips dropped like honeycomb, your mouth smoother than oil

And yet I recall myself at your door, drinking from the forbidden pot

Another drinks of that cistern now, in six and six, it will be dried-up again

And yes, I heard the lies too, amazed that makes you sleep well

You breezed through so fast, all in one day

And now, you wink, you wanna be my day one!

Like a parasite to its host, you wanna stay glued

Sorry! You’ve had your cake, choke on that till there’s no more

Oh my days! I think I’m spiting blood

But I’d rather have mine than share my glass with unknown lots

Claiming solitude in the shelf is bliss but self-refills for every TD and Harry

I’d whine, cry and fight to have you back

But no! The goal remains happiness and I’m grateful for this stall

Peace!
