It Would Be Easier
It would be easier
If you would just walk away,
Stare at me with jaded envy,
Punch my ego and leave,
But you never did.
You pampered me with your lies,
You lavished me with your shortcomings,
You comforted me with your deceits,
And you left me with sweet sickening memories.
Now, it has been a year,
But walking away from all of this,
Seems impossible for me,
For you walked away with happy tears.
Why didn’t you kill this girl?
When you would just leave her with crying smiles,
Her eyes smitten with the ember of sorrows,
I’m sure it would be a lot easier.
