Mine

Mine

A Poem by Athena Angel

He set a time to f**k
I laughed and coughed up dust
It's a nice thought 
You'd like it to be rough
I'd love for you you blow me away
to take me and twist me up like a tornado does
you could destroy my life
cause one day I'd look into your eyes
and it would change 

he said you don't have to hurt yourself 
to feel something 
I knew he was right 
but I'm craving that sting
the thing that makes me jump 
that changes everything 
bored with consistency 
bored with stability
cause deep down I think it can never be mine

He's a mirror, reflecting my own pain
I could see it in his slurred words
I could feel the anger through his hurt
he had to cover it up before I could see it 
But it's too late cause I'm a step ahead
he thought he got inside my head 
He wanted to make an imprint in my bed
I knew I deserved more 
but I haven't figured that out yet 

I made it out to be a joke
to every one that didn't understand the word no 
surprised when I didn't collapse under their spell
But I know this game all too well
We wanted different things 
And I thought I could be what they need
And they thought they could have my body
but she will always be mine  

We feed what we get given 
They could never be forgiven 
even thought they weren't him
I wanted him to blow my mind
but with love not touch 
I wanted him to care even thought he couldn't 
If I could get myself planted in his mind
then it would help me fill the absence 
but all he can hear is silence 

He thought he made the rules
he thought he was in control 
but they never really do
I win every game they attempt to play
won't ever be caught giving myself away
none of them could take his place
could give me back what I've lost
I'll stop looking for it in time
and realize that all I need is already mine
