A Waste

I wasted my time by opening up to you
I wasted my voice saying and being kind to you

 you shoved my words down my throat with your ignorance
And frustration
You Shoved my loyalty for you down the toilet drain

Shoot ! you have become my enemy 
Shoot ! you have become the end of me

Pow ! goes the blast of a shattered dream
Pow ! goes the saddest thing that makes me scream

The compassion of what use to be
The compassion of a once you and me

Betrayal of a friend i called the best
Betrayal of a driven ,but failed test

Waste of all romance placed on you
Waste of dignity and sorrow which sought through

After a very super weekend I am back at the soup reading. I enjoyed reading your poetry this afternoon Kay'Sha. There are so many diverse writers here and I am so happy I am able to read most of them. Have a wonderful week and may you find what you are looking for in life and in your writing. Love, Carol
