Love. Joy and pain.
Heart holds the rein.
Silences my mind
On a quest to find
That one thing to fill its void
Only to learn it’s a futile toil.
Friendship masquerading as more
Chips away at it, leaves it feeling sore.
Was anything real
Were we ever on same even keel?
Were your words a mere spiel
Meant to make my heart kneel
At your whims and fancy?
A mere puppet on your strings
Played with till your heart sings.
Is my pain the reason why you smile?
Twisting the dagger deeper, all the while you beguile.
Was I that easy to sway,
A willing lamb for you to use and play?
I trusted you,
with me
my heart
my fears
my past.
Never did I think I would feel it thrown back at me so fast.
aaaaa, nyxoo- it's soooo goood! Love the varied structure and how it flows so beautifully. (Also rhyming poems are like my favs) 😍🍄
