Mischance

When you looked at me you saw a face,

A body,

An artistic creature in many forms.

You'd often stare, and it made me feel good.

But I was a blank canvas that called onto you,

feeding your licentious thoughts.

You'd say it is healthy, rare

to have someone who was beyond vulnerable for me

I was flattered, but deep down,

Not so deep, my desires were unmet.

"As long as you're happy, I'm happy."

Those words I questioned.

You didn't hear me,

You did not listen,

Refused to understand.

My heart was housed,

Barbed wired,

But you barged right in.

I finally gave up, and I saw a possibility.

One that converted into a false reality.

Unfortunate.
