To My Delusional Believer
Have you ever been hurt by someone of close blood?
I'm made of flesh and bones
Not sturdy bricks and solid stones
My ears are not your digging holes
For seeds of lies to bury
They can't believe all the words
That your misleading mouth carries
My brown eyes are dark clouds
Holding back rain
And when the water starts to fall
You ignore the tears cascading down my face
You say you love me
And say you care
But you always leave my lungs dry
When I keep yelling “how”
If you’re never there
I cannot make you be my friend
Or stay in my life
I can no longer beg you for attention
And have you comfort me at night
You were supposed to be a shield
To help protect me
Instead you were the weapon
That brought me to my knees
I am hurt and broken in more ways than one
And I keep trying to see the bright light
With how far I have come
But the truth is
You have betrayed me more than four times
And somehow still expect me to always treat you right
As I’ve grown older and much wiser
I have realized that you are a sad liar
You will never come close to being a Christian saint
Cause even Judas was known to be someone as two-faced
