But Seriously She Never Gave Him Due Process
but seriously she never gave him due process
if looks could kill
he would be dead
she had those kind of eyes
and mostly conviction
the last time she yelled at him
he remembers vividly
time froze
her theology, like always
came to the surface
her eyes pierced his soul
"would you want someone to do that to you"
he froze, he had to
and his tongue had to
it couldn't take liberties in the workplace
little does she know
because she walked away, like always
in his hearts of hearts he tried to please her
he tried to be assertive in his application
of an incident
keep in mind
in his hearts of hearts he tried to please her
he wanted her to throw him a fish
praise him for once, she never did
ever. ever
it wasn't about him, it was her
it wasn't his vanity speaking this time, either
he wanted so badly to get on her good side
score some work points
something
he would do small chores for her
be the working bee
maybe it was perfunctionary
but he never received a passing glance from her
it was really noticeable
it was like he was the dog from hell
it had an adverse effect on him seeing
her treating others nicely
it did my dear
he looks back at how cruel she was with him
yelling at him without due process
he doesn't mince words, here
it did my dear
not giving him the time of day, like she was so much better
mostly only speaking about herself when she did speak close
but truthfully ... but seriously
he think hes prepared for hell now
letting him burn from this experience so when he does
go to hell it cant be any worst
...
it won't be such a shock
