Just Like Royalty

Mother's advice

I could never heed.

Now, on my soul demons feed.

I keep drowning in tears

Because of my fears,

As there are no visible repairs

For my tears.

You used me like a pawn

Now all I am is a thorn

And my bed

Is coloured with red,

For in a battle I never fought;

I got caught.

To be hound

By rue, now I'm bound.

Instead of euphoric,

I am nostalgic.

For our legacy could've

Been an empire,

Through our love's fire.

I would have conferred

To you loyalty,

And treated you just like royalty,

But I guess it was a breeze-

Leaving me out in the cold

To freeze.
