The One
He first treated you like you wore a crown.
He fucked with your mind until your smile was a permanent frown.
He convinced you as if you were the one at fault.
Like a daily dose of a wound filled with salt.
As the days passed you said you were happy.
This was the way relationships should be.
Isn't is normal to be emotionally abused?
Or even doing things you were forced to do?
He whispers "touch me here" and "touch me there"
As if you were a person that required no care
Your mind tells you he is all you need
Do what he says, give into his greed
"I love you" he says, "and I always will"
He continues as he takes another pill.
Days turn to months
Time starts to fade
Your friends try to tell you that you aren't okay
You brush it off like it doesn't matter
They don't know you are in this for a happily ever after
One day comes and he breaks your heart
Your mind and body begin to fall apart
The light turns to darkness
Your heart turns to stone
Your tears continue coming
And time is spent alone
No friends are there to help you
This mess is your own
You wish you had the strength to knock over his throne
You begin to realize that what he did wasn't right
Manipulating feelings and getting rid of the light
The person you were is a distant memory
One you betrayed in a time of misery
The ongoing battle still remains
But hope prevails with the decreasing pain
