Self Love By K
My heart, Constantly torn apart By the lies you’d tell, The ideas you’d sell, Oh, why could I not see it from the start Abusive with your words, Hurting me with every verb, You lowered my self-esteem, I didn’t know who to be I just knew I didn’t want to be me And when your words cut too deep, And I wanted to leave, You sweetened your tongue, Words flowing as smooth as rum Slick with your words, You convinced me to stay, To continue to play In this toxic thing you called love It took time For me to finally realize Exactly what you were, Everything I didn’t deserve A liar, A cheat, Someone who has nothing good for me, A little insecure boy Looking for a new chew toy
