With you, I never earned, The power, to intervene. I feel invisible, most times, It’s how, it’s always been . You never gave me, What I gave, without thought. An ear for the stories, Of the worldly wars, I fought. This distance on the map, Added to what, you outgrew, This cup infused with my love, Wasn’t the strongest brew. I felt powerless, most times, You were out of my reach. There I sat alone, sighing, Staring at stars, on a beach . Did you look at the sky? Feel the strings pull and tug? Even if you felt it, ever so slightly, A wormhole to you, I would’ve dug. You decided for the two of us, And cloaked me invisible. You never gave me any power, Over your life, to cause any trouble. I wished, the promises you made Didn’t come with an expiry. Even in death, I will keep mine, This love remains, my burden to bury. I was so easy to put away,   I never caused any drama, Treated me like an acquaintance, Washed me off your karma. You stopped acknowledging me, Moved on with your vice, Who was I to intervene now, And give you any advice . You made me into a stranger, I knew you, from many lives before, I live this life without you now, This hurt will last for many more.

Power over you
With you, I never earned, The power, to intervene. I feel invisible, most times, It’s how, it’s always been . You never gave me, What I gave, without thought. An ear for the stories, Of the worldly wars, I fought. This distance on the map, Added to what, you outgrew, This cup infused with my love, Wasn’t the strongest brew. I felt powerless, most times, You were out of my reach. There I sat alone, sighing, Staring at stars, on a beach . Did you look at the sky? Feel the strings pull and tug? Even if you felt it, ever so slightly, A wormhole to you, I would’ve dug. You decided for the two of us, And cloaked me invisible. You never gave me any power, Over your life, to cause any trouble. I wished, the promises you made Didn’t come with an expiry. Even in death, I will keep mine, This love remains, my burden to bury. I was so easy to put away,   I never caused any drama, Treated me like an acquaintance, Washed me off your karma. You stopped acknowledging me, Moved on with your vice, Who was I to intervene now, And give you any advice . You made me into a stranger, I knew you, from many lives before, I live this life without you now, This hurt will last for many more.
Thought it should rhyme :)
