What You Deserved [Acrostic]

by Pete   Oct 16, 2007


Walked out on me, doubtfully, head for the door.
Hurt me, desert me, I want you no more.
All the time you were mine you tortured my soul.
This time you give back what you tactfully stole.

You find a new love, but one that shoves you about.
Openly hurts you, when that love curses you out.
Unfortunately you're tortured; now nowhere to go.

Damaged lips from the hits are starting to show.
Eyes try to disguise a denied pain which is real.
Serves you so right, despite what you may feel.
Everything that goes round comes around again.
Revel in the reason that you conceal your pain.
Vain in your heart but your pains undeterred.
Ever so amused, you're being abused by a girl.
Damn right, it's a delight when he gets what's deserved.

~Pete.
