Tidal Waves

Battling my thoughts all day;

At night you confirm they’re true.

There isn’t a win I’ll get,

When the only contestant is you.

You’re allowed to feel-

The pain, anxiety, regret.

If I express it too

Anger’s all I get.

Manipulator is what you’ll say;

I twist your feelings untrue.

But what’s the point in fixing,

If what you need is something new?

Treacherously treading water;

Don’t stop to take a rest.

Just another whore-

Lest I ever forget.
