May 2012
Once it fell apart there was no going back
The pain ended for him, began for me
I broke it, with my restless hands and sleepless mind
It took some time to sink, become reality
But once it did, I was on the floor
The same place I had forced him to make home for the past four years
I felt the groove where he had lay while he felt her
He escaped my prison, where I now hold only me
He has now had the taste of someone else
Experienced a love much sweeter and true than my bitter impurity
There will be no return to my dark chambers
For a simple taste of something better will keep a man away forever
