Self Respect

he doesn't care or stop
and he doesn't think
about you at all
for the narcissist he is
so what did you learn
from 'Titanic', young lass?
merely love or romance?
or the beautiful way
to enjoy sunset's kiss?
or how to rest yourself
on a couch to get sketched?
did you learn anything
apart from this magic
or did you also get lost
like all the foolish girls
in a love of the seas?

but do you remember
that crazy afternoon
when jack took rose
to some twisted railings
and taught her to spit?
to gather it all inside
and throw it out all at once
because that way, girl,
is the best way to create
an impact much stronger

so my dear darling girl
haven't you got it gathered
so much more than enough
inside your wounded self?
for if you finally have
then what are you waitin' for?
come, spit it all out at once
at his narcissist face
for this is what he deserves
after all the love or romance
you showered over him
or that oh so beautiful time
when you made him enjoy
the soft kiss of a sunset
or let him sketch you lazily
while you rested on a couch

this is what he deserves
for not caring enough to stop
after you gave him a love
as deep as the love of the seas
for not every boy is jack
so spit at him, silly girl,
even if your Titanic drowns
for Titanics were always
meant to be drowned

Author's Note

There's a difference between ego and self respect. Make sure what you have and if it's self respect then please, don't compromise. Respect yourself if you want to be respected. :')

Try once. Let the other person try the other time. And if they have that attitude in their bones that makes you fierce then spit. Spit. Spit. There was always more to Titanic than mere 'love'. Don't forget. ❤

Much Love xX
