Smackdown

A Poem by Alisa Js

it wasn't enough that I cared beyond measure
nope.
that wouldn't do
not for you and your continual pleasures
all at my expense
and not that I cared 
I was so willing
so willing for crumbs
as I lay beneath the sub-floor
listening,
and maybe pretending
behind closed doors
that we were O.K.
all that I imagined
and more
all that I dreamed of
believed in

This is so relatable, there is not a person alive who would not know or understand these feelings. Smack downs are how we learn that person simply isn't right for us. Doesn't mean your affections are not worthy, they are just being wasted on the wrong person. IMHO. Give that same affection to yourself I say :D who deserves it more?

It happens to us all at some point.
