Raw
Acid based in composition
vile stench that lingers.
The sudden rip of flesh
has made me numb.
How dare you leave the one
you claim to love so much.
Easy to fall in, hard to let go of,
Promise of forever broken overnight.
Your true face comes to light,
heartache and heartbreak by light of day.
Who are you? My new enemy
destroys without a blow.
The impact never ends you make me homicidal.
You move on and i am stuck with all the fallout.
You still want to be friends but I am just
not in that friendly place.
You can't give me time, you say now or never,
All or nothing, sink or swim.
Hate is a strong word but I really don't like you.
Our love is over, I'm sad to say
But i refuse to crumble.
I'm letting you go in style, honesty and respect.
