I Deserved Better 

Anthony5 Comments

I’m losing my cool 

It can’t be helped

Played for a fool.

–

That’s how I felt

Irritated inside

Like a fresh welt.

–

Damn my pride

Such a waste

Nowhere to hide.

–

As I leave post haste

Trapped in the lies

I can’t just cut and paste.

–

Yet, you gave me your thighs

I do not know why

To lows from such highs.

–

Makes me cry

Foolish tears 

Why’d you lie?

–

I guess it was fears

Of what may come

And where your heart steers.

–

Now I feel dumb 

For buying it all

As well as numb.

–

Like I’m 2 foot small

Reduced to nothing

Kneeling, I crawl.

–

There was just huffing 

No love to be found

All the while your McGuffing

–

When I wasn’t around

You found better

And left me on the ground.

–

A Dear John Letter

Without a sound

I deserved much better…

Crushed

She really took him for such a fall.

He had no idea until it was too late.

There’s nothing that could be done at all.

Just pack it up, and call it a day.

Try bouncing a ball against the wall.

That should clear your weary mind.

Or placate further, hike a hill that’s tall.

It’s over now, for this, there is no debate.

One day soon, you’ll be clear of this squall…

Love Rejected 💔

What can I do

What can I say

It’s now all moot

Since you’ve gone away.

–

I gave you love

Without fear or scare

You left with a shove

I guess life isn’t fair.

–

You called me a beast

In our passionate bed

Now crumbs and not a feast

In my wearied head

–

No goodbyes

Or final embrace

I choked on your lies

With tear stained face.

–

We shared our souls

Mutual attraction fed

Now nothing consoles

You chose him, instead.

–

At least in the end

You finally fessed up

But late omission is not a friend

But a bitter cup.
