Verse To My Unfaithful One

I knew I’ve written the worst verse ever
When my sweetheart found another girl
Then in there I’ve disclosed some secrets
Like body odor and his horrible foul breath.

Our first dating moments were disgusting
His kisses and ways of hugging
If hugged, a synthetic statue
I got an allergy from his kisses, too.

Transformed by my selfless love
Changed his bath soap from Tender Care to Dove
Set aside muti-toothpastes
Took an advice and went to see dentists.

A day I’ve found him with another girl
I roared like lion with vision's  swirl
Stepped backward, grabbed my pen and paper
And wrote a verse — the worst one in the universe, ever!

Emotions poured out profusely through my ink
Spilling his kind of love that disappeared in a wink
As madness bursts with tear-drops
I scribbled that worst verse about his secrets in all caps…

Your love is an absolute handicap
A waste of time…a piece of crap!
I’ll never hang myself with a rope
There’s a better man out there waiting, I’ll elope.

Last lines were my lessons learned, loud and clear:
Toxic relationship is one-way loving and giving care
We'll end up in depression then cry
And ask why love is a dove that’ll fly.
