Tonye George Poet Quatrain

Your Turn

I told you how bad I wanted ?
The longest i’ve been with
The most I was used to
The one I missed
I thought he was perfection 
I couldn’t bare it, so I went back
I went back over and over again 
Until I thought I completely got over.

Lied to my face,
Once again work and excuses
This time I realized I deserved better
My desires left in junk
I wasn’t on to anything 
Minutes on sky motion
What a joke!

Still was obsessed with past career dips
Couldn’t take me there no more
Didn’t even get across the wall
Beginning was peak
Wondered how I spent half a decade 
Missing and wanting  
The BM 

Sometimes you have to keep skating 
Until you loose it completely 
Keep the trophy 
It’s just not in my heart no more
This time, I left with the pride of 
Not having him 
Cross my mind ever again
I really was disgusted.

Funny how you miss me more than ever?
Trying to get back in?
Who would have taught.
Get used to my absence 
Stay with the lesser preys
Took you this long,
Well I found out, I couldn’t
Settle anymore 
With all the glitters 
Still not the standard 
I know you love me too much,
But I really do deserve better
If I'm not getting all.

Hug your past lies and miss me forever!
That’s your punishment.
