Analysis of You

Jhamiya Demps 1987 (Orlando)



You killed my spirit
You murdered my heart
You enslaved my mind
Burden me with your lies
You choked my soul
You blinded my eyes
You didn't answer my cries
Why did you have to lie?
You made me miss you so much
You didn't hold me, I needed your touch
I use to love you so much, not anymore
because of your lies.
