In My Thoughts

Noose

I’ll never forget
The look in your eyes
That very look
You made me despise

With such beauty
You could have your way
You knew the game
And dared anyone to play

You have a hold on me
That I cannot break
And the smile that drew me in
Now fills me with hate.

You make me weak
I have no power
How can lips so sweet
Leave a taste so sour.

Now I’ll cut these ties
And turn myself loose
You were once my dream
But your love is a noose.
