I had stayed away
Away from the desire to indulge in your seduction
Away from your sweet juicy words and promises
Promises that are never fulfilled but easily said
Promises with no roots, that weather in minutes
Minutes that have me would if time matters
Minutes never regained, yielded nothing.
I was might to stay away
Away from the draining need to embrace you
Away from the captivity that comes with your smile
Smile so dangerous insect flees
Smile of all gifts, He gave in abundance
Abundance is what I longed for
Abundance is what you can’t provide.
I was to stay away
Away from the evil that plunges my being
Away from woes rose with pain
Pain you inflict
Pain you enjoy to dish
Dish more delicious to you than beef
Dish my body is beef
I will now stay away
Away from being a punching bag
Away from the heartbreaks
Heartbreaks kill the soul
Heartbreaks destroy the body
Body mind and soul
Body needs reconstruction.
I am away!
