I left your company,
So “precious”
The moment
You mentioned the name
There’s only so much hate
That a person could contain,
Can tolerate,
And nothing as potent
As that one name
To make me see red.
I thank you
For reminding me again
Why I had vowed
To never come across you.
It brings back, gushing,
The extent of your gullibility
And my blind trust.
You, like a broken puppy
In need of a shelter,
Still yap behind her
All day,
Unseeing the truth
That my eyes still hold.

And so, I left.
It keeps the pain at bay.
