Its over

Its over

A Poem by Ashley Parrott

All those things we never said are in pieces on the floor now
and everything that hung in the balance has descended.
Left to myself I turn to fantasies about a love that was never shared,
and a relationship that never had its fair shot.

Words cannot express how badly this scarlet letter burdens me,
or how cheated I feel by this reality
and how raped I feel every time I look i the mirror

Running was wise,
theres no blame coming to you
I deal now with all these phrases like
"Could have been"
and "never had a chance"
"If only I had"

But we both know its in total vain
And where your priorities have always held residence

It was my pleasure to possess you
It was my pleasure to distract you
and now its my reluctance to let you go

Fair well in every sense.

Life is like a deck of cards, we aren't always dealt a good hand so we have to reshuffle and move on. Nice write.
