Head in my hands,
Weak are my words,
My world is dark
For how long, I ask?
I turn to look at him,
WHY DID YOU DO IT?
I'm I supposed to take it?
His eyes gaze at me
His lips part to speak
His hands tremble,
He quivers,
Words sprut out unclearly,
I see him sweat,
Regret washed all over,
This was my life,
My one true love, so I thought,
The one I called soulmate, partner, my love,
What love does to you,
It swallows you whole if you let it,
It drains you if you allow it,
That was my case...
I let his words consume me
His actions confuse me,
His fake love move me,
I dug my grave,
Invited my demons,
Now I am mentally caged.

The Evolution of LGBT Portrayal in TV and Film
Happy Pride Month, all! I love Pride Month and everything that comes with it; the celebration, the festivities, the prestige. Pride Month is the ultimate beacon of positivity. Now sadly, there are a bunch of people in society who aren't really crazy about Pride Month and have their things to say against it. To those people, I'll only say this. There's a special place reserved for people who are against Pride Month. I'm too much of a gentleman to say it here, but I'll give a few hints: it rhymes with "bell," and I'm not talking about the city in Michigan.

This was Deep and Creative♥️📝✌️😉
This was so relatable. I'm so sorry you had to experience it too 🥺 Loved your poem!
The line "I'm I supposed to take it". Have a second look.
Fly free little bird. Never let another cage your wings. Easy to say, but try your best.
