Thought you were good for me. Used to think you were the definition of what good should be.
You were a scam and your love was a sham. Your words used to stick, but now I’m stuck in a situation that sucks.
The soul straight from my being, because I was foolish enough to entertain lies that I shouldn’t have been believing.
Yeah you got me good. You were quite the deceiver, but now I’m an unsubscribed non believer.
I’m leaving you behind. Your love is undefined. Hastily remove yourself out of my mind.
I’m patching up my wounds from the times you made me bleed. Planting new seeds away from you no good deed.

Thoughts on Vocal and the way the world is
"Death cannot stop true love, only delay it." – Wesley in The Princess Bride. I decided to come back to Vocal on a very cold and dark night at the end of December. I had been, and still am, convalescing from a horrible staph infection that had gone misdiagnosed for months. This, paired with the increasing challenges of being healthy, making the best choices for my co-parented child, being a wife, and being a director at a new job, was a lot to manage.

Thank you for sharing, there is so much truth in this! Wes
This is heartbreaking, and it happens in most relationships.
Great poem.
Well written
