To a bum, (Free verse) by RealmOfSong
Your redemption was
to make me feel sorry --
Well, I'm not sorry anymore.
What you "felt like"
is what you are;
I'm not sorry for that.
I am not the one who
stabs backs
I am not the one who
can lie with a straight face
because I've had so much "practice"
I am not the spoiled egg
who needs an entourage
And I am not sorry
for what you've made of yourself.
You used dialogue
to mask threats to sink me --
Well I'm not listening anymore.
I've seen what you look like
under the stage paint,
What writhes under your skin,
And my eyes have never lied to me.
