You led me to believe I was in control
The years we shared; how close we were
I trusted you with my every living breath
Yet, you betrayed me with your fabrications.
You heaved my strings; strummed harshly
Casted dark shadows deep in my psyche
When I found you a conscience oath we made
That meant nothing but an overflow of tears.
For now I take back what’s mine, ceaselessly
With the light I produce from my essence
Cleansing the poison that ensnared me
Until the next time my weakened heart fails.
