My Internet Boyfriend

It started out slow And then it got serious. I thought it was just a game until you called me kitten Feelings got in the way when I saw your face You were trouble from the beginning and I knew it Using your words in a way to tease and seduce me Many limits were pushed when I talked with you Sweet, peaceful and innocent turned into naughty, scary and real Nobody knew, you were my little secret Until I was told that you loved me Perhaps you really did, but then you got clingy Which turned into overprotective You made me think that you were all I needed Getting scared was next to normal and at first it was fun But unblocking you and allowing you to call me baby was my mistake Fear made me answer and apologize Your gas-lighting and guilt tripping made me think it was my fault When I promised I would not leave, it was a trap Laying that trap for myself was terrifying Even though I loved you, I had to let go The toxicity was suffocating I do not regret backing away, deleting and blocking you As a matter of fact, I am proud of me Thank you for making me stronger and teaching me what my worth is You were the mistake that needed to happen
