I Got What I Deserved
Broken tooth
From fist once loved
Scars in unseen ways.
Trust betrayed
Inflict harm
Lost in emotions maze
Respect denied
Flows both ways
Diminishing esteem.
Sadness seeps
To aching marrow
Laughs a far off dream
Soul deep anger
Smoulders darkly
Sustaining life long pain
Time goes on Fades memory
Deep wounds, though, still remain.
