You Rode Out On It

feeling to well known can't hide the hurt travel far and wide to uncover the splint in my heart the day after you broke it i play the morning over in my head remembering what you said not that it fell on deaf ears not that i didn't understand but i couldn't believe you spoke it tangled and twisted waves of emotions fog covered thoughts a tidal-wave of tears supplied the river for your leaving no one else will use this vessel the way you rode out on it the kaleidoscope of your perspective is all over the place far left to the extreme right on what grounds gave you smite , bloodied and venomous your taunting exposed raw nerves glisten and shine like a new bike i will i will as those words spewed at me i am leaving ,true you are left me staring back at you from the mirror , i am not that bad ? sure we didn't make the right choices ,that morning you left your words still haunt me as you said "i don't want to do this anymore i quit and i am going to a meeting" i pleaded with you not to flush it down the toilette but you did , i hate you for not looking back i am stuck here , good by my addiction
