The Golden Boy
I recall holding you when you wept in despair, but the minute I confided my demons you let them out to air.
Quoting the Bible but living a lie, making me question why I didn’t actually die.
You deliberately hid your use and abuse
‘You better not tell’,
I was your constant excuse
‘Just say you fell’
You’re incapable of truth
Always selling me, ‘I love you most’ when in all reality I existed as your scapegoat.
You told lies about lies because you thought you were smarter
Ripping lives apart while wearing a fake badge of honor
You may not have a conscience, but you do have a fate,
It’s just a matter of time before you fall from grace.
They say time will tell and the truth comes out
But where’s the consequence of dragging people through hell?
Minds may mend and people recover
But I’m exhausted from carrying the burdens you were too pompous to discover
I ended up below rock bottom
Simply from loving a man who can’t admit to one problem
But life goes on and the world isn’t fair
You fake a purpose and pretend to care
You promised love but all you gave was deceit
You convinced me to write a letter because you said it would bring peace
Well here’s your letter
I’m no longer your toy
You think you got what you wanted
I’m afraid to feel joy..
Guess that’s the repercussions of loving
The Golden Boy
