So smug you are in your Judas ways
You gave me your undivided love
“You say”
Then while away the mouse played
Until trapped by the uncertainties
The mirage of love dissipated

In the lying truth you begged to return
Hostility in disbelief permeated my thoughts
Now strangers exiled to two distinct worlds
Joined in a broken bond of shattered pain
Piercing stares upon a bowed head
Left no doubt as to the offender

Time has imprisoned us to working together
In an ever increasing distance
The medicinal sentence of abstinence
Has created the void of extreme desires not met

You chose to stay to face the music
For the love lost was so monumental
That the revenge inflicted
Was worth the sentence
Of total solitude

In all the anger
Love still hid
In steel eyes of determination
Lurking in mists of lusts of past memories

In the encounter with a family counselor
They said to forget about the vented hostility
Go home and recommit
To each other in embraces

Under doctor orders we touched so gently
That I insisted on getting on top of this situation
And make you pay in my special revenge
Of letting you never forget me
Wearing down your wandering spirit
In the chains for me needing you
Get my medicinal revenge


(This was written from thoughts not experience. My real life needs of comfort has not been met. I tried to make it neutral to gender but I am sure it failed.)

(big hugggsssssss) This is so very saddening, sweet friend, you have expressed your thoughts so well here and I hope soon you find the stillness of heart you desire and find the proper prescription you need to ease the pain! (sigh) This is powerful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
