How could I misplace that which makes me
I retrace my wrong laid footprints
And they lead me to your distasteful action
Actions with which you supported with your
Contorted opinions or so you called facts on
My non-independence
And how even though we had bound ourselves
Stayed ourselves
Gave ourselves
I just didn’t know how to be by myself
And so after five years and
Vows spoken of truth in better or worse
In your worse you worsened the situation
By moving the continuation of our lives
Out the door
My options were no more my limitations
Were beyond limits
I screamed silent help
Leave or be left is what laid at my doorstep
And so each day I passed you looked at you
You trashed me looked through me
Tried to school me and tell me what I am and what I’m not
What I did and what I didn’t do
When in actuality in all truth
What I will claim is having
Mislaid my love in you
I should have known given our past love trail
Reality of life ****s bitterness of lives of fairytales
I admit things were stale
But you straight nailed my frail heart
Paid my bail
Got me out of my jail cell before even trying
To pray heaven to kill our hell
I misplaced my self
I lost my self
When I gained you
Looked to lies and mislaid truth
And the truth is
My loves value is priceless
But somehow you managed to price it
Less and
Less
Until your less
Became my best
The best thing that ever happened to me
