Because we were so stupid,
We repeated those forbidden words.
Because you were so stupid,
You told your lies to make me stay.
Because I was so stupid,
I submitted to you every time.Because I'm no longer stupid,
I can drag myself off the floor
Of the word prison you've kept me in.
I chucked your dreams of forever
And unkept promises across the lake.
I watched your ring, my captor,
As it skipped across the liquid sun.With a final splash, I took a breath:
"I'm not stupid."
The ripples faded in the late afternoon view,
Taking our broken binds with them.
My heart no longer tied to you,
Maybe, just maybe, I could run free,
And produce a pearl of hope.~JessTheWolf 🐺
