Mentally Imprisoned.

Pulling on my
heartstrings
Playing with my
thoughts
Muddling up my
mind
You lead me to
despair

~

You brought me down
to nothing
Stripped away my
pride
You laughed as I
grovelled
For every word of
praise

~

There was a time
long ago
When I could look
in a mirror
Now I hang my head
in shame
The image serves
to sicken.

~

I was stupid to
believe
That you could love
at all
I'm older but no
wiser
Your deceit I failed
to see.

~

Go now, get out of my life
Take your lies, please disappear
