Analysis of FOUR YEARS (revised)
Though we haven't seen one another in four years,
Four years doesn't seem near long enough.
Years that have been the best of my life,
Have been so only because you were not apart of it.
Gone are the days of your callous manipulations
By your carelessly-utilized femininity.
I once thought we'd be together forever,
Still, I often find myself wishing I had never even met you.
Miss Oh-So-Pretty, who had me wrapped around her finger,
You were the worst thing that ever happened to me.
Dearly, I paid, for giving myself to you.
