was i the villain
in your side of our story
wicked, green and foul
spewing witch brew from my tongue- toxic, so toxic
that you left me
was I the monster, in your eyes
claws, wings and teeth bared
as you flirted and flittered behind my curtains: to her, to me, to her
am I evil
did I let you down
left you alone and lonely
in pain, scars glistening
wounds dripping with passion
was I the devil conducting foul misdoings in your church
was I the one
who broke your heart?
