Love's Revolution

The sound of his voice was enough to wake the Sleeping waves in me, and his presence had me Feeling like a mermaid swirling in those waters, Carefree, exalted and confident that no harm Would befall me since, I saw in him, the divine! Made of manners, he was all polite and civil, Bidding me to shed off the fears that usually adorned My crown, and his eyes, so deep and kind, Had had me dreaming of a future, made of Stability so well founded, it being blessed By the Gods themselves! But then I realised that my heart was being taken For a doormat, upon which he would wipe his feet, That the feelings I held for him Were not present in him, That he had no consideration for me And that I had been listed as cheap and way too easy Just because I opened up myself to him! The lack of consideration hurts me, more so since I opened up my soul's diary solely to him, Always making sure that nobody would ever Be able to have a peek as to what my lines mean! Find strength in my agony, I moved away And pledged to give myself love, and to allow Myself to breathe, as freely as would birds soaring High up in the skies, for, I refuse to be another Victim of violence just because I am unwanted!
