I stood there braving the rain
with a hope that these words would still remain
even as the acid trickled burning my skin
i stared at her, feeling the pain set deep within
She stood there, safe in the shade
safe from the onslaught of acidic hate
plotting her moves as always in her twisted style
i knew she’d deny all accussation with than innocent yet sinister smile
I saw her smile as the acid burnt down the dove
& realized how gullible i had been to have called her my love
i wrongly thought, tears came out only to hide initial pain
when in reality, there’s more to misery than a heart can explain
More painful than acid were tears
bringing with them nightmares laced with wicked fears
without her, my world seemed to have burnt down
now i just hope tym reveals my chosen one & brings a smile to my frown
