She thought forever’d mean something different,

she didn’t know he meant so little time,

she was just a toy to him,

to play with and enjoy,

her heart was in his hands,

and his hands with rough and evil,

he gave her little thought,

his eyes played the images so sweet,

soon she would know

the thoughts would be bittersweet,

he treated her like she was not human,

in a way she felt enslaved with him,

but she couldn’t escape,

her thoughts of him were loving,

but soon all would change,

his trickery would meet an end,

and revenge would be served cold and sweet.

She left him there,

she escaped the torrent he left behind,

but old habits would die hard,

she would return,

but not in the flesh,

but still none the less,

she almost was trapped once again.

but her guardian angel was watching

and pulled her away,

out of his reach,

forever.

Another one about "Him" (if you've read that one of mine you'll understand better) this one kind of describes my expirience with this certain person. and i'm finally able to write it down, so here it is. The Torrent.

This is gorgeous. Your word choice is amazing and the flow of the poem was perfect.
