Did I accept more than I should have?

Shall I weep for the lies I accepted? Oh no. I hid behind a lot of different things. How shall I let myself ever trust you again? Dare I even try? Is it possible for you feel anything, anyhow?

Rancid was the idea of being that other woman in your life. Much less being the third or fourth. Yet I stood by you. Sat there accepting the facts. I was crazy because I knew. I asked myself long ago, if that was all you were going to offer what makes you think I was going to continue to allow it? Did you not once think about that?

Why would I still search for truth in your eyes? Why did you not think I was worthy of the real you? Why?

My eyes saw so much. Yet I let it go. I let you have what you wanted. I gave in to all the restrictions. All because I knew something had changed. I had known all along. Yet you deemed me silly, crazy and insignificant. Sad that you were the silly, stupid one.

I saw so much. I was glad you walked away. I was grateful that you finally let me know that I could not help you. I could never mean anything to you. It hurt. I put years into everything but I know that doesn't mean much to one who is so sane.

One who could never understand why I remained. My wasted away last time. It took years to let go. Years. I ached for a long time. And this time around I had hoped. Oh I fooled myself again. I believed I actually would gain something more this time.

Yet I only wanted a true caress. A real kiss.

Time will tell me where I need to go. Life will pull me to the right thoughts now. All will be won in the end. I no longer need to see. I know that every part of you washed me away. Put me in the trash. Because you could not wait to put me there. Long ago you dreamed of that.

I know that.

You asked once why I continue to hold on? Did I just want to view you as a client? I appeased you with whatever you wanted. Then you proceeded to tell others about me. About these arrangements. Believe me I knew you were different. I took whatever I could have.

I believed many lies because I still stood for you. Silently. Even when I was attacked I stood for you. I defended you in so many ways. Yet that is my downfall. That is the part of my role.

Never a woman to you. Not even a toy. Just trash.

Well let me help you walk to the dumpster. Just no more lies.
