A kind face, but so displaced, yet I hide it well
Heart so broken words unspoken, how could I kiss?
And tell,
Who would believe, the hurt that weaved itself
Around my mind
How the devil in female form, treated me unkind.
Mentally and physically I suffered through the years
Accepted what was given, until the inward tears
Built up inside of me like a tidal wave of pain,
Drowned out the reality that I could ever love again.
So besotted with this girl, like a trophy on my arm put her on a pedestal, a princess free from harm,
But all that glitters is not gold, she turned my heart to
Rust
And all my dreams and wishes, she watched them turn to dust.
So blinkered, so in love, although she beat me black
And blue
Hoping she would change, is all that I could do, yet she was slowly killing me, but I didn't realize until one day in the mirror I opened up my eyes,
To see my face staring back at me, but a shadow of a
Man
That I used to be, before all this began.
My inner voice spoke to me, saying it's time to let her
Go
Walk away whilst you still can, for your spirit is so
Low,
From all the years of holding on to this fairy tale in
My head
But my princess turned into the wicked queen, who had me nearly dead.
Therefore, I left leaving her everything, she thought she
Had won it all
But material things do not matter, when saving your own soul.
Life hasn't been very kind to me, even from an early
Age
I have been nothing but a tiny bird, locked within a cage.
Now the time has finally come to spread my broken
Wings
So I can heal, so I can feel, I hope that life will bring, everything I have ever wished for, to find someone
Who will love me well?
Love me like I am in Heaven, not love me like I am in Hell.
