Emotion Explosion

Such a wonderful city of angels Full of dreamers and schemers Cowards. Posers. You poisoned me with sweet love Then poisoned me with anger. A lion with an impatient roar Slowly eating me alive. Ever so cleverly. I never saw it coming. I've been devoured and feel invisible. I look in the mirror at a stranger now. The Gods have allowed me gentle protection The Angels hover over me, shadows on my wall. Safe, yet damaged and scared. Shock. Unhappy, bitter and vengeful. Emotions that exploded all at once A bomb ticking away. you ignited it and detonated me. I love you but don't know what to do.
