Raw

Acid based in composition
vile stench that lingers.
The sudden rip of flesh
has made me numb.
How dare you leave the one
you claim to love so much.
Easy to fall in, hard to let go of,
Promise of forever broken overnight.
Your true face comes to light,
heartache and heartbreak by light of day.
Who are you? My new enemy
destroys without a blow.
The impact never ends you make me homicidal.
You move on and i am stuck with all the fallout.
You still want to be friends but I am just
not in that friendly place.
You can't give me time, you say now or never,
All or nothing, sink or swim.
Hate is a strong word but I really don't like you.
Our love is over, I'm sad to say
But i refuse to crumble.
I'm letting you go in style, honesty and respect.

All of Me Pt2

How dare you change your mind
and stop loving me, when i gave you everything.
How dare you smile and laugh with her,
while I am left with all the pain.
How dare you comment that I am the one to blame,
when you cheated, lied and played your mind games.
It hurts to breath sometimes, yet I take pride
in the fact that each breath I take proves
I can live without you.
I'm taking back my feelings because the saddest
thing in the world is loving someone who used
to love you.
I swear honey I don't miss you, I miss who I
thought you were kind, beautiful and worthy
of my heart.
High off of love once, now in a downward spiral
yet I am grateful we were once connected.
Crazy some may say but I like the way it hurts,
you have taught me the hardest lesson of love,
it coldly ends but the fire is worth the pain.
