Tethered© by Celsi Jude Erwing

I always loved you.
Even while you held me down and force-fed me your lies.
You never choked on the words you swore were true.

I begged to be released.
You never planned to let me go, did you?
Just held me captive forever in your fantasy.

No matter how I screamed,
You promised it would all be better soon.
Feed me again. Kill me with your poisoned fruit.

(The saddest part is that I learned to love from you.)
