I am a Storyteller, first and foremost. This is my blog for poetry, prose, stories, excerpts of my novels and videos. Life poetry, prophetic poetry, poetry for all genres. I think you'll find yourself here if you read long enough.
The Damage You Did To Me Thinking back on yesterday and all it held in it's hand Such promise, such hope, such....torment I can only shake my head in wonder That I ever believed a single word you said You silver tongued devil with your savoir faire, Your joie de vivre, your je ne sais quoi Your B.S. I'd like to take your face in my hands And smash myself into your eyes, Make you feel the panic I felt The first time I looked into the mirror And didn't see you standing there beside me. Terror even overtook me when I called Your name and you didn't answer, Called your house and another woman Softly said "Hello." I thought the world had ended And nobody told me But everybody knew I'd been played And they were laughing in my face It was hell.................. And I did my time and I survived. Now undo the damage you did to me By letting me see you cry and hurt and plead And die from wanting I know she left you and that's why you're here Those wounded eyes are staring into my soul Searching for consolation and admittance, Hope reaching out it's hand in tearful silence Waiting to hear the words you long to hear Remember yesterday? You ask and I nod my head And smile. Oh, yes, I remember yesterday, my love I remember every lovely, bloody thing And every lovely, bloody lie! You left me here like damaged goods in the trash heap Of broken hearts. Now looking into your sorrowful eyes, I feel renewed, I feel relieved, I feel reborn I remember everything............. And closing the door in your startled face, I hear you gasp and try to speak And a moan escapes your throat As your unbelieving eyes take in my victory The damage is undone............. Now take your silver tongue and get the hell out!
