Untitled

U hurt me out of jealousy

U turned on me out of envy

How could you go & betray me

After I loved you unconditionally

Am I a stranger in your eyes

Am I the beast that you visualize

Did you think I was so blind, that I wouldn't recognize

Pure deception- after I stood by your side

U slipped a mojo on me

U went & blinded me

To the fact I couldn't perceive

That you're evil baby

No good for me baby

U said my world was elementary

U blamed it on my eccentricities

U said you'd never seen such an oddity

Tried to fuel my insecurities

Tried to rob me of my identity

Now let me give you a triple dose of reality:

I'm done, it's over, we're through!

Breaking free from the misery. A new reason to smile again. Embrace this peace. Excellent work!

You pull no punches I love the honesty of your work, it is very primal. I like Demetrios's title suggestion.

My dear Cathy, many are the ways to go wrong a relationship and only one to go right: Mutual, unconditional, selfless love! If this kind of love is not there do not waste your time! PS: Could the title be YOU?
