He was clever.
I never considered that,
He knew exactly the words to say,
And at precisely what pace.
He convinced me.
That I was normal,
By making himself seem stranger,
Than I could ever be.
He trusted me.
When he needed it,
So that I was obliged to do the same,
When he fed me with lies.
He amended me.
So that I required him,
And couldn't live alone,
Ever.
He destroyed me.
In a single forced kiss,
That I hated so much,
But couldn't bring myself to end.
He broke me.
Without a thought,
Despite claiming to be my friend,
I will never reclaim my heart.
He took me.
For his own,
For him to do with what he wished,
For however long.
I escaped.
But too late.
