Advantage

It’s like I’m in heaven when I look in her eyes

Like I couldn’t be better

I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her

But then I’m busy for one day

And all hell breaks loose

When I check back on her the next day

She tells me someone has taken advantage of her

Tears of anger and sadness hit me instantly

This isn’t even the first time I’ve heard those words

This happens all the time in this world

Whether a friend, a stranger, or love interest

The fact that this is a common occurrence

It disgusts me

Women fought all this time

For rights, freedom, and equality

Just for a deadbeat man like you

To make a strong woman weak

So that you could feel good

She spends every day thinking about it

Telling herself she could have stopped it

Telling herself it’s her fault

Not only have you ruined her mental

But you’ve ruined my future as well

The future I looked forward to so much

A manipulative thing like you

You aren’t a man anymore

In fact, I wouldn’t even call you human

You’re pure garbage

You’re a damned monster

I don’t hate many people

But I despise you


The author's comments:

This piece was a school assignment, but it came from personal experience. I fell in love with a girl and just when I was going to ask her out, I was told by her that some guy had taken advantage of her and she was just never the same afterwards. In this piece I just let out all of my anger from the situation that I feel isn't rational to express otherwise.
