Dare.

I’ve made mistakes

But I’ll find a way

To make you understand more

My pleas which you ignore

You’re supposed to be a man

But otherwise

You’ve been torture

And I’ve been damned

Never an explanation

Or worthwhile apology

Just reminders

You to me

Your touch repulsive

I shrink away into the arms of my solitude

Melting into warm, steadier eyes

And you watch as the one you betrayed

Moves on

Daring you to become a better man

For you’ll never have my love again

But maybe some day,

Another woman can.
