Bleeding Heart 3




The way he put his hands in
The
Back pockets of my skin-
Tight jeans,
Leaning towards my
Back, sniffing on my neck
Like the air he needed to
Survive was right there.
The feeling I get reminds me
That what I have engaged 
In is exactly something I
Call Guilty Pleasure.

Bleeding Heart 2


If he loved you as he said,
He would have listened to you.
He would have stopped at your ‘stop’.
He would have known that you are more important than
The pleasure.
But he didn’t do any of these, honey.
Rather his emotions came first.
His desire to satisfy himself came first.
Don’t let his words of affection fool you; he just doesn’t
Care.
For I know they say; ‘if you love someone, you try to put
The person’s feelings first, before yours.’
And these words are not expressed in his character
Run for your, baby!
He’s a masquerade.

Bleeding Heart




My state of celibacy has been polluted
By someone who promised to go down the
Road with me.
For whether he forgot his promises or
Whether his emotions failed him,
I can’t explain.
But all I can say is
He’s not who I thought he was.
I’ve been tricked into believing that he was
Different.
Regrets are left for me as I soak my pillow
With tears.
I’m faced with another emotional trauma to
Handle.
Life after all is cruel.

Lies


Each lie you told me
Gave me an opportunity to
Drift apart.
A process I call healing,
Which enlightened me the more
Causing the darkness you created
To pave way as each light came.
For those lies were your culture;
Something you rather not live without.
For they didn't come just from your
mouth, but from your body, spirit and soul.
I can no longer be a partaker of it,
For my light has come.
