It wasn’t the terrible things I did
Or was it?
It wasn’t the terrible things I said
Or was it?
But you slipped away in the dead of night
Another in a long line of escapees
Fleeing the safety of anywhere but here.
We did eat well, too well I heard you say
We never held back spending a dollar
We splurged at every opportunity
But still you said such terrible things.
I was mean, inconsiderate
Self centred, oh how you loved that word
I started to believe it once.
Then thought what a cow you were
Not loving me as I am
Faults and flaws all listed
No fine print to mull over.
An imperfect man defective in many ways
But made to order just for you.
You selected me, a random pick you said
From oh so many suitors
Who came so rarely to your door.
But I was easy pickings,
Gullible, vain, bordering on the pathetic
Like a puppy I panted at your side
Agreeing to anything.
You manipulated me
Punished me for being me
So in the end it was a terrible thing
You slipped, you slided,
You disappeared, a long way down
And I was left with a terrible memory
Wiped clean by fate itself
Or so I’m told.
oh, that was really terrible! good write, Michael 🙂
