Dominion what is it I have done to you to deserve this deep ache I thought you were a friend that was my first mistake you had your own agenda plan I did not understand and all that was engineered was written in the sand I’m not some little girl and you sure are not school needing someone to sit in your corner you’ll have to find a different fool you’re just a one horse rodeo underneath an empty tent hot aired cloudy rhinestones from days lived misspent opaque beauty falls to ugly so common and quite plain a lonely canvas kingdom spreading misery you reign |

Vivid expressions of a torment that no one should have to face. It seems to be more and more common these days. Well expressed and enjoyed the read. |

Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt. I like the way you express yourself in this one. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |

The pain of betrayal hurts to our very core, making mockery of memories we treasured and leaving bitterness in their place. Brilliant! |
