Medusa

Where did it go wrong, I used to beat myself up about this. By your side through so much, you said I was your rock, do you remember it. When you was in that hospital bed, my hand was the only one you could grip. But when I needed you, you was a miss. Is it because I disagreed with things, and didn't bow to your every wish? We used to be so close, but that's no longer evident. So many years wasted, then what was the purpose of this. I don't even know why I'm telling you this. You can't feel my pain that I'm sharing with you. It's because you're so shallow that I can now see through. Your self centered ways, and lack of compassion. What started out so well no longer matches. Foundation of trust burned down to ashes. Just remember it was you playing with matches. While exhaling verbal gases, with combustible actions. Sparking the result of what just happened. Broken promises ain't nothing, I'm used to backstabbing. But you, you have singed to the core, irrepetible damage. Assuredly I can never love again, if I can't trust with real passion. Sucked in by your beguiling tongue, I should have heard the hiss. When you spoke, now my heart is as stone as a monolith. After I looked into your eyes, and truly saw what I was dealing with.
