Magpie Tales – Self-Love

image101

He is out there

I’ll follow the tracks

They lead in one direction.

The man won my heart

Then snapped it in two

As If I didn’t matter

As if I wouldn’t notice

Him leaving on the two fifteen.

But I am determined, resilient

I am not to be ridiculed

Made the butt of so many jokes

I will pursue him

Hunt her down

Let them taste a little of my

Carefully placed self-love and devotion.
