The man I thought..

When someone you trust, can cut you in such a deep way. There is no other answer, but to let go and pursue a more healthy relationship.

You hurt me,

The man I thought, who could keep me safe.

Harmed me, hurt me,

You did this, you ruined me.

It took one time, which was enough for me.

Enough to feel distant, to feel lost.

My loyalty is surrendered by your shameful act.

You hurt me, my love is boxed in.

Scared to show emotion

To touch you

To say a word to you.

Scared that you’ll hurt me.

I’ll never be the same

It’s a shame,

My life in knots and no one to straighten them out.

Good bye to you, the one, I once loved.

Author's Note

A romance, gone wrong.

[Fallen Phoenix]

Quite an empowering piece, loved the line "it took one time, which is was enough for me.", I congratulate you on having the bravery to step out of the situation straight away and realise that you deserve better! Really great piece which captured the relationship brilliantly, I feel like I lived the relationship.
