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
