Ffreedom
Freedom
Acidic words
Slice through me
Invisible knifes twist inside
Torturing each nerve
Mouth drained dry
Too shocked to speak
Waves of sadness roll down my cheeks
From eyes once loved by yours
Why so much anger?
So much venom in your stare
I did nothing but give
My heart and soul were yours
In a split second my world fell apart
Tossed aside
A useless rag
Not welcome in your arms
Nor in your life it appears
You wanted to be happy
Funny as I thought we were
But another love you have now
To cherish and to hold
Hating me is easier
I understand your guilt
But why so much spite?
I did nothing wrong
Misplaced anger
Bellowing insults
Impossible to ignore
I grieve through my tears
For what we once were
Admit your deception as I accept defeat
I will be stronger one day
And smile again once more
As I remember your promises
All broken
As I am right now
Because my love was worth more
I deserved better than you
My future is brighter
Without lies and deceit
I know in my heart
I am better off without you
