On the spot poetry take two

Flirting with Disaster



I'm flirting with disaster
no more happy ever after
You claimed you loved me
You claimed I was the one
Then how come you left me for someone more "fun."
You shattered my dreams
You made me build walls
I felt like I was a prisoner inside porcelain halls.
It all broke inside me
little shards of my heart
because you and I were so far apart.
Then something happened I started to mend
slowly but surely we became friends again.
Yet I'm still plagued by the memory of that day
The day you told me what you did with her in that way.
I can never get that back
she took it all
and I don't know if I'll ever recall
the way it felt to be your only one
the way it felt when I was your earth, and sun.
Because now every time you mention her dreadful name
something inside me feels a sudden pang.
A pang of emotion so slight and so small
Its a wonder it still brings so much hurt to me at all.
Because I will always feel that I am to blame
that I wasn't good enough, yet I'm still the same,
and you are back by my side once more
but when you talk of her I want to shut the door,
The door to you and our love magnificent
because she constantly makes me feel insignificant.
I'm flirting with disaster
yet you are still my master.
