when enough is too much (Free verse) by elderking
so self righteous, and therefore justified
you boldly point out my life's every wrong
as I stand, mouth open, I'm mesmerized
sure you'll foam from the mouth before long!
you know I'm willing to own half the blame
if indeed blame can ever be found
but you're so caught up in your finger game
where pointed accusations abound
warming with vengance, you sharpen each word
hopeful my wounds freely bleed
as always my defenses remain unheard
when that ego of yours needs to feed!
viciously you toss me a final straw
suprised when my back remains strong
casually salting my wounds while they're raw
you wait for our old dance and song.
enough is enough! I spit eager wrath
my tongue edged razor fine
you blithely skip down your garden path
towards ambush that awaits you upon mine.
