You put on quite a show
“All is well
There is hope.”
But dear do you forget that I see inside your soul?
I want to change my ways, you say
Every day
the same.
Yet you’re Holding on to the rudder to keep the ship going south
Each day getting further from the course.
Have you forgotten that the stars are urging you north?
Did your compass break,
My valiant captain?
Or did you forsake
Your commitment to your King?
What first caused your faith to shake?
I never thought that this could happen...
Do the pirates have your soul?
Did you sell it for the promises
Of beautiful women and gold?
Was I kidnapped
Is this a Dream
Or is the life I thought I had
Just not as glittering as it seemed
This is the first poem I wrote about him, that points to me noticing that I was in an unhealthy relationship, or that things were genuinely not ok.
I wrote it In December of 2017. I don’t know the exact date, because I edited it this morning and I forgot to catch the date.
