Loyalty

A Poem

By Serena NorrisPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Where did the honesty go?

Out the window,

And through the door?

And when did the battle scars begin to show?

I’m tired of acting like I don’t care,

Under sheets of red,

And stars shining too bright,

Lost in the never-ending cycle.

With a kiss upon my cheek,

And a hand on my ass,

One day,

You will walk away.

And how can I state,

That I am beyond tired,

And no amount of sleep,

Could cure this restless heart.

Shut up and sit down,

I don’t care what your opinions are.

You never cared about mine,

So why would I look to you for answers?

Where did the loyalty go?

And the culture that cared?

I don’t know where I stand,

And I'm tired of the excuses.
