Damaged

Damaged

The damage is done,
It's not over quite yet,
My tally and your sum,
I'm here with no regrets.

Caught out by the one,
The unsuspecting foe,
Mere words from your tongue,
We stand toe to toe.

Apologies may cleanse,
A corrupt and tainted soul,
Not this time friend,
Forever you'll be an arsehole.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
