The Poison

She calls, you bend


She cries, you run


She controls, you bow


Yet you don’t see this


You think it’s for your girls


The poison leaks into them


But no, it’s not like that


I refuse to be put second to her

Not after everything you have said about her

She is a cancer, you sat

She is a horrible mom, you say

She is a nasty person, you say


Think hard


Are you still hoping for it too,


Deep inside


Or have you moved on


You still have a connection


Your family even has said you enjoy the pain she brings

Are you going to move on


Or are you ready to say goodbye to me


Chose me


Or her


But be careful


You leave me guessing


And I’ll think the worse


And will say good luck


This is toxic


But you seem to like the poison
