LIFE GOES ON

She sits upon the staircase
Staring at her phone
Messaging and calling
But she only gets the tone
āPlease leave your name and number
Iāll ring you back real soon!ā
Where has āMr Rightā gone now
Heās playing his old tune
How could she ever trust him
Heād played this game too long
Played her like a fiddle
Sang the same old boring song
But her heart was oh so wanting
Couldnāt help but love him so
And he knew this with a passion
Sheād never tell him āgo!ā
So he carried on regardless
Didnāt care that she was hurt
He gave her pickings here and there
With an attitude so curt
But she couldnāt help herself
Sheād never had much pride
Vying for attention
To mask the hurt inside
What was this woman thinking?
Sheād never find esteem
In living with this playboy
Who liked to live the 'Hefner' dream
But the phone she keeps on ringing
Waits to hear that tone again
Why does she act so foolish?
Knows itās just a case of when
When heāll dump her for another
Feel so useless and so scared
Heāll pick her faults and put her down
Sheās always felt compared
This has gone on far too long
Must find a wayĀ outĀ of this ditch
Stop acting like a fairy
Turn this girl into a witch
Revenge was on the cards
Sheād held it in too long
Lived life by insecurities
Was demeaning and so wrong
So she jumped up off the stairs
With a vigour and a verve
And she grabbed all of his clothing
His pride and joy; what a nerve!!
Laid the clothes out on the table
Stroked the richness of the cloth
Cut out holes beyond repair
Like the workings of a moth!
Her therapy now finished
She stood back; admired her work
Yards of shredded suits
Sheād finished with this jerk!
There was no going back
The threads were binned and gone
Bagged up with the trash outside
Now her ālifeā could carry on ...
