Getting Even With A Traitor Poem by RIC BASTASA

when you give up everything

to someone whom you love like undressing yourself

so she may see your soul and touch it

and even own it

when you feel that in that moment she has cold hands

and eyes distracted by something else like she is thinking of

another day to come

another face to see

.................you feel betrayed,

she is not sure about you and her in that instant

you have the right to stab her with your sharp looks

tear him apart with your knife sharp teeth

like you are the lion king of the forest

eat her piece by piece like you are very hungry

for a love that is completely true

swallow her bit by bit

and make her now a part of you

you will not regret the eating

she took your love away, now you want it back undiminished.
