You knew me once
You used to care
You faded away
You weren’t there
I knew this day would come
Where you’d punish me yet again
I have been ready
Heart in hand
Love lingers
To steal souls
Nothing lasts forever
Just in our minds
Through our memories
Nothing is even real
It’s all an illusion
Divine intervention
Failed me
When you appeared to love me
It was all a lie
An experiment
In emotional rape
You win
Take your victory
Along with your hatred
You never understood love
Not even pain
Love never hurts anyone
It sees
It understands
It knows
It forgives
It is unconditional
It is me
You never deserved me……….
