The Essence Of Who I Am

Romance knocked on the door last night

I closed it saying you’re not real

Lust came and slept with me

Nothing felt right anymore

Love climbed through the window

I told him the fake thing was cheaper

As i turned i kissed infatuation

i could not let him go

Fear wrapped around me

I felt sickly warm

Emotion threw me to the ground and beat me

Passion and zeal eloped that night

Without saying goodbye

They left me standing next to my old friend hate

And even when he left I still wasn’t alone

I knew i would never truly be alone

Even when i wanted to be

The loneliness never leaves

M.A.P
