Backlash
Reminding you of a girl you once knew,
You thought you loved but she broke you in two,
Her makeup was different, but the baggage she left you was the same,
In your brokenness you compared because it was all about gain,
Healing was in progress but the process wasn't finished,
You ran ahead to the next woman in hopes she would help heal this,
Instead she felt your wrath from the past,
From another woman's heart you could no longer grasp,
The New girl didn't know what to do,
Because the abuse you dished out was all about you,
And what was missing in you rather than the love in front of your eyes,
This man could not see how bad he was hurting inside,
