Blank
Tabitha J. Bryson 1973 (Indianapolis, Indiana)
I have no heart
you have no soul
you took my love
to manipulate and control
The day we met
was painful and odd
fate made you my family
the reality a facade
Anger ran deep
hatred we bled
time had been lost
to bury among the dead
Who else but you
could hate without reason
lying to the public
was it a felony or treason?
Though far in the past
and the past being now
reality a blur
but forgetting somehow
Now life goes on
with you far away
who were you exactly
or would you rather not say?
