My irrelevant heart

Exhaustion sets in My walls crumble I’m bursting with sin Bound to stumble I can’t stay upright My knees, locked tight A royal mess To my peer’s delight I plead for a truce No need to seduce I’ve given my all My greatest produce Manipulative brains Need not ever strain To highlight disgrace And claim you, insane A sitting duck What the f*** Given my all Yet, I’ve been plucked I’ve been traded Clearly jaded Shut down, discarded My truths sedated My Irrelevant heart Has me confused Just as I start It’s clear, I’ve been used

To be targeted by a sniper of manipulation is the worst form of torture. They are powerful cowards who use deceit as their ammunition of choice. Thank you for writing with such eloquence. By showing them for the demons that they are, you reclaim what they have taken! Being your own sheild takes real courage, allowing others to help you hold it, is when healing begins..... Warmly A.S.
