PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

i looked behind the curtain,

not out of curiosity mind you

in an effort to save myself.

subliminally i knew you were the reason i couldn’t heal

so my journey was to reveal you.    the real you.   all the years

i naively chose to believe your lies.   what you wanted me to believe.

through no conscious act of my own

its funny how my intuition led me back to you

i crashed right into our toxic ways

only when you destroyed me one last time

laid bare in the hollow of my self esteem

only then could i see clearly

so i bid you adieu with words that once filled me with dread

now i ride like a phoenix

ITS GONE
