i look away
with tear-stained eyes,
shut off my phone
but still remains your lies.
and who am i
but a broken girl alone,
staring in the mirror
only skin and bone,
miles away from home
miles away from "home"
i never needed to be treated like royalty,
all i asked of you
was a little
loyalty.

i look away
with tear-stained eyes,
shut off my phone
but still remains your lies.
and who am i
but a broken girl alone,
staring in the mirror
only skin and bone,
miles away from home
miles away from "home"
i never needed to be treated like royalty,
all i asked of you
was a little
loyalty.
is loyalty
truly
rarer than
royalty?
