A plague of pain suddenly spread
Throughout my body, mind and soul
It made me strain to the point of vessels
Busting in my eyes, so I cried red
It came upon me last night when
I thought nothing of some words said to me
And....
Words that weren't said to me
Now, I have realized words are just words
And actions are what I need to listen for
And that is why I am hurt...
I could end here and it could be enough
But allow me to widen this gaping hole
In my heart for all to see
It's punctured anyway, so I might
As well tell the story as I fade away
Her life is set in 'stone' and she
Threw the ones she didn't need directly at my head
I was shackled by passion, bound by admiration
Seduced by her smell and held captive
By her caring so much for me
Yet, that is all over now, but
I was never let free, though she unchained me
Why did I stay? Why did I imprison myself again?
Why did I put myself through this?
Questions, I have many... answers
I have none along with love, joy and peace
I guess I'm ugly, underserving,
Repulsive, gross, but also...
Easy... easy to maintain...
Easy to satisfy and put to the side
Easy to hide and manipulate
I will never have someone to call my own
I am not favored in the category of a significant other
It's over now. She left me alone because she was never alone
I was an augment, extra, an attachment that just looked good
But could only last for a period of time
I knew it was too good to be true....
Hmph, who was I kidding?
Me.
