Never again

The way you look for blues,
for weaknesses to get inside my head,
it repulses me.
Never again.

The more my anger brews.
I replay what you said,
it infuriates me.
Never again.

Nothing left to lose
as long your ego is fed.
It distances me.
Never again.

Author's Note

enjoy.

Yes! black.butterfly I've said it a million times! Yet, something inside, human nature, a lust for lust, glutton for punishment, Glutton for glory, draws us back...and these people know this.
Sometimes I think we make ourselves "victims" in the situation we create and might even want to enjoy.
IF it's not hurting you...Enjoy.
IF it IS hurting you...Don't turn that dial, don't even go there.
You'll be okay. Just pray for God's help. He'll never leave you nor forsake you. Sorry for your pain. Truly.

Sorry! It is so easy to say - no matter how much we hurt. Still there is that something, we wish it wasn't so,yet it is there and like the moth is drawn to the flame we are back again - and again to say Never Again!

Take care - Dave

strong emotion flows through. feeding an ego takes a lot. 'never' is an awfully long time ... :)

[binibiningmaya]

I enjoyed it :)
Nice one :)

Love`s a reason of hitting the break at the edges of "distances"; "miles" for the new breath of peace. Nice imagery.

[InsanityWriter]

Very nice rhythm. I enjoyed your poem. :)

Reminds me of some conversations with one of my exes that still believes that pushing my buttons is the way to get me to comply with her desires.

I just laugh now and note that that ship has long sailed, never to return.

Wonderful if not a bittersweet piece about letting go of those that would drag you down.

[Phantom Heart]

Never again is right! "The way you look for blues" love it, great use of words.

[Coyote Poetry]

Nice use of thoughts. Some folks like to test us. I did like the ending. Come a point where we won't take no-more. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry. Always good to read your words.
