You have wrecked my mind
Made me overthink, to no end
Smashed my positivity to pieces
And worst of all, destroyed my happiness!

You have wrecked my mind
Only pointed out flaws, never appreciated
The pains I have taken, in order to change
And ultimately, trapped me in a cage!!

You have wrecked my mind
You may think you are kind
However, I know you are not
Your hurtful words say a lot!!

You have wrecked my mind
I hope you realise the damage you did
However, as a very close cousin of mine says
I am a fighter always
And though I may not yet have won
It is only a matter of time before I win
And you will not get any credit
Because, it will be through my own effort!!
The last few sessions with my therapist have played with my mental health, lowering my self-esteem and heightening my insecurities. Hence, I decided to write this poem as a coping mechanism.

You have damaged me very badly
Ensuring that I hate you madly
You have caused me a lot of emotional trauma
By being a queen of sheer drama
You pretended to love me as a friend
Instead, did you trap me in a toxic bond!

You have damaged me very badly
Because, you were only after my money
You are much worse than an enemy
Because, never did you truly want me to be happy
You have caused my self-esteem to crash
For that, you, should God punish!!

You have damaged me very badly
And may be thinking coolly
That you are now going to have a great life
But I warn you, you are going to be in strife
You will get divorced soon
And find yourself alone
Ignored by almost everyone
Finally, will you know then
What it means, to be betrayed
By someone you dearly trusted
Well, now I totally hate you
But I will eventually forgive you
Only because of my love for Jesus
And then I will finally find my inner peace
But you will never find yours
Goodbye and good riddance!!
Poem dedicated to someone who was a colleague in my first job and who used to be my best friend a year ago; but who has used me for my money all the time and discarded me when I asked her to return some portion of it.
