Betrayal

You were in my head, not in control.
You slowly took over my heart and soul.
I wasn’t weak, but I wasn’t strong.
I still never thought one day you’d be gone.

I did everything for you; made your coffee, made your bed.
Now you leave me wondering, “Am I better off dead?”?Rebuilding my life, is it as easy as it sounds??To go from the mountains back down to the ground?

Life isn’t easy, but sometimes it’s worth it.
Karma will get you back, I’m sure of it!
You can mess with my head but don’t mess with my heart.
Oh well, you did, now where do I start?...

You took all I had and left me in the dust.
No goodbyes. No assistance. No love. No trust.
You left midday. I didn’t know.
To come home wondering, “Where did you go?”

Everything was gone, including my soul.
You took it all just for control.
I cried for weeks and months on end.
You were my love, my husband, my world, my friend.

You took it all, down to my broom.
The misery of control, force, and gloom.
You didn’t have to do much, it was the petty deeds.
The hatred, the screaming, the hurt, the greed.

Why did you leave me? For I didn’t yell.
Though the choice words you said, do those ring a bell?
No. Of course not. You stalked me around town.
Harassed me, called me, tried to make me fall down.

Karma will get you one of these days.
Your impotence will be destroyed in numerous ways.
I am who I am, and I’m the best I can be.
I am strong like the wind, I am wild, and now I’m free!

Now it’s over, I’m moving on.
I’m so glad you left. I’m so glad you’re gone.
Though, the thought still remains and will never be dead.
You’re not in control, but you’re still in my head.
