Poem Viii - I and You

Don't get it twisted. I didn't use the term You and I because I made the mistake of putting you first. You see when you were my number 1 I did everything for you. Went to school just to see you, ditched practices just to be with you, snuck out late at night just to make memories with you. You had me at my own game. Manipulation. I'll admit you had me there but playing me is something that can't enter my system. You see you had your fun. I met your friends and they liked me. Couple of months down the line I found out they were all in on the act. Apparently you got a hold of my past and you wanted me to feel the same I've apparently inflicted to other people. Looks like you live in a world where words do speak louder than actions. Well of that's the world you live in then I'm pretty sure I don't need to show you what karma is cause when I'm done with you I'll be given a new term, "Step-dad." You hate me, but whether you like it or not you respect me. I and You is something that will be totally different. Call it my alter ego if you must. I will put myself first and in my eyes you will be that girl who thinks she's better than me therefore driving to bring you below rock bottom. I will tell you what I'll do to you, wait for you to disagree, then prove you wrong cause I like it when someone will underestimate the power of manipulation. When I'm done with you I will leave a crooked smile braces can't fix. I will leave a broken heart no man can mend. I will leave an emotion that makes everyone have sympathy for you. I... Will leave me inside of you. And every night you are alone in that bed, there's only one person you can blame for the tears running down your face. That person is not the one who inflicted pain towards you. Its the person who pushed him to do it. That person is you. When it was You and I, I gave you so much praise my friends couldn't stand me. Now that its I and You, your own friends can't stand you. Sadly enough I'm the one who can help you, if only you weren't who you are to start off with. I and You. Never put yourself second. 2014/04/13
