Shattered Trust – A Poem
You wrapped your tendrils
’round my mind.
You left me helpless,
lost and blind.
Full of lies and deceit
to get your way,
I, a mere victim,
was easily swayed.
I took the blame
for all your faults.
I took each word,
locked them in vaults.
But now I stand,
no longer swayed.
I make my stand.
I push you away.
You’ll no longer have
a grasp over me.
Begone, you monster,
I set my mind free.
