I, ME AND MYSELF~BY PATRICE GREEN

I, ME AND MYSELF

I was missing something.
Something promised.
Thinking with each passing day
that the anonymous would come out
and present itself.
Waiting with a hope,
as high as the clouds.
At all costs.
A determination so strong,
to find that one thing
I knew I was missing.
So much that I gave my very soul.
I convinced myself that my loyalty
& unconditional selflessness
would magically make my promised love appear and yet the longer I waited
I lost me! I left!
Somewhere in the hope and the giving
a slap to the face was what it took.
The loss of the life of another
was what it took for me to realize
that I wasn’t lost
but I was buried
underneath the lies
and betrayal of a love
that never loved nobody!
