ROUND METAL

By Kenye

Well, the truth hurts;
You came into my life and destroyed it all!;
The good education, job, my family, my friends.
I was so full of life, but…
Like a running tap,
you came and drained me off. Like a curse spelled upon me,
you came and fulfilled it.

Only if I wouldn’t have said ‘YES I DO’,
Only if I would have known of your intentions,
ONLY IF…

It now adds up!!
As I walked down the aisle, the tears you shed, the remorseful look on your face, the sweet vows…
Really, all but a cover-up with my heart!?

Unrelentingly, you took my hand and put the round metal on my finger.
Smiling didn’t know I was launching the burden phase of my life.
Within a year I was plus one but reduced to zero.
Misery in the round metal
