Toxic

by @luisa-bernabo

You took me and you put me in the palm of your hand, after lots of turbulence, I thought I'd found safe land. I found myself unstable as you reached for someone new, all I'd ever wanted was to be happy with you. I spent months on end just wondering, thinking what went wrong, when I finally realized, it had already been too long. Seven months of slowly picking at my self esteem, I never believed I'd meet someone that could be so mean. I couldn't ever see it, what you did to me, I'd give in to you, so be it, I thought you set me free. I hope she knows you're poison, that you lie and you cheat, that slowly you'll destroy her too, for now she's just fresh meat. Now I'm smooth sailing, so happy that you're gone, my heart's no longer wailing, I managed to move on.
