REGRET

via Daily Prompt: Awkward

Awkward

Awkward and scared
Embarrassed to tears
I did what you told me
Abandoned my fears.

Would’a followed you anywhere
Done anything that you said
You were my everything
Every thought in my head.

Obsessed and consumed
I fell for you
I fell so hard
Didn’t know what to do.

So carefully planned
You took control
I was your puppet
You took my soul.

Once you were done
And had taken it all
You walked out on me
I took the fall.

Battered and bruised
My life torn apart
Should’a known all along
Should’a known from the start.
