The clouds of darkness are slowly lifting,
Is it a new perspective
I dwelled in the darkness,
The situation was hopeless,
He showered me with compliments,
I let down my guard,
He just disappeared on me.
I have now stopped wondering,
I will survive, I am strong,
What goes around comes around,
Linda
The daylight is no longer dim.
I can see the sunlight,
Starting to peek in.
Of a lesson learned ?
Am I over the heartbreak,
Of feeling I was spurned ?
For a long time.
Now I realize it made me stronger,
And I will be fine.
From the very start.
I should have seen it coming,
We were bound to part.
Lies and more lies,
Flattery and understanding
Seemed to stop all the goodbyes.
And got swept away,
It was too rushed,
I dreamed of the somedays.
The pain was so bad,
There was no closure,
I had been had.
I know he`s just a jerk.
Gets his pleasure conning women,
He was a piece of work.
The pain has eased because I now know.
He was scum who lied and abused my feelings,
But in the end we all reap what we sow.
He'll get his reward someday.
I hope he finds someone he loves,
And she does it to him the same way.....
