Worth Losing A Piece Of My Life

Worth Losing A Piece Of My Life
Amazing how the angels sing,
The Devil grins and the harpies bring
There is no one else I would rather see,
As you're the one I'd like to be

So come over and let me touch you,
I can't wait as it is way over due
I shall introduce myself with pleasantries aside,
As you look deep into my soul it is me you shall abide

There are many names I go by and you shall choose just one deary,
Succubus, Tempterus, plus the almighty word that might sound a bit dreary
Yet do not succumb just yet,
As I want to keep you as my lustful pet

Oh how it shows that you have been used,
I've taken you around on your leash and as you've enjoyed being abused
How much more can you take from me being the one who leads??
Can you ROLL with me doing more to you and then simply concede??

You were thinking that you just might be the one in the end,
Sad enough that I had you convinced you were my friend
All those crocodile tears and shows put on for you,
Did you buy it for one second or were you playing along with me too??

You held me close as you stabbed me in the back,
A true friend that heard the banshee scream as an attempt was made in the sack
Too bad fake is fake my wretched one,
Perhaps all these long forgotten years of which you state make you realize you ARE NOT the sun

This world of which is mine does NOT revolve around YOU,
It never had, never did and never will to be true
So check the mail as it is pitch black,
There is nothing you can do now to hold over my head because it is everything you lack

Amazing how all power is lost and taken away,
It's been gone for several years, weeks, months and days
I cut the chord and you just sighed,
WAIT!! Maybe what I heard was a huge cry

Either way no matter what you do it is well known,
As anyone with a piece of paper can do it from home
A picture altered and a voice distorted,
No belief will come of it and your twisted creations sorted

So make sure you read this very well and let it stick within that mind,
Everything you say and all the actions you bring to people are blind
Face the fact that you've lost the war as I am the victor here,
I may have had to lose a piece of my life but it was worth it my dear.

Lately your writing been so good. I look forward to read your poetry. So many lines stood out in this poem. I had to read the poem a few times. The description in your words made the story come alive in vision. I like the ending to the outstanding poem.

I admire how sincere you are in your work. The passion is real, and relatable. Be careful with cliches and other overused phrases (pitch black, cut the cord, etc) and find new ways to express the angst. Make the reader earn it!!
