Little Did I Know

A lesson to be learned

By Amelia DavisPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

You were just another storm

Disguised as paradise.

So much time spent

In the comfort of your arms,

Feeling safe and loved.

Not once imagining this

Cruel transformation.

Yet, now I know.

I still recall your darkness

As it crackled like a thundercloud.

Shocked and thrown into

This whirlwind of emotions,

Feeling lost at sea.

I will stop wearing this

Damned heart on my sleeve.

I will stop trusting those

Merely acting from boredom,

Simulating a genuine soul.

The pain slowly began

Educating after many,

Many agonizing lessons.

Now realizing with

The right mindset,

No one holds the power

To my own nirvana.
