REMEMBER THIS

Debbie Middaugh AKA TURBO1904 1963 (San Diego, CA.)



  Why fucking crawl,
 when you can slither,
   Your motive and actions,
 you might reconsider.

   You portray you know,
 what you're doing,
   I know the kind of potion;
 you are brewing.

   You only considered you,
 and your needs,
You deserted me;
 my heart bleeds.

   You treat me as if I'm,
 someone you never knew,
    It is difficult to imagine,
 a life without you.

   I have no idea,
 who you really are,
   You cut me deep,
 it will never scar.

   Do I remind you of someone,
 you use to know?
   It was not that,
 very long ago.

   You do not return my calls,
 you act like I don't exist,
   You can't understand,
 why I'm so pissed.

   When I said forever,
 I meant forever,
   You discarded me,
 with the flick of a lever.

   Love is not something,
 you just quit,
   This is why,
 I'm not over it.

   You have no idea,
 what is wrong with me,
   You did me a favor,
 you set me free.

   I see it in a very,
 different way,
   I view it, as deceit,
 and foul play,
   Remember this;
 Every dog has its day…

About this poem

This is about betrayal, heartache, pain, isolation. Being single after 10 years is a shock to say the least....
