I should've left you
To rot in hell
After all I suffered through
I should've watched as you fell
I should've forgotten humanity
I should've known it was insanity
You brought this upon yourself
I am no rehabilitation center
Drunken you fell over the bookshelf
I dragged and helped my so-called mentor
You made a five-year-old girl pray
That her father would die tomorrow
Instead of keeping my ghosts at bay
You became the only villain I know
I am not even angry anymore
Just disgusted seeing you at my door
I should've left you on your own
Should've known you were up to no good
I should've been born with a heart of stone
Why don't I leave you, when I know I should?
But now, I am so over you and all your games
I am no longer affected at all by your false claims
You were and always will be a burden
A nightmare that I failed to forget
I thought all our exchanges were done
But it was love's demise and hatred's onset
Now, whenever I see your face
All I can think of are things I should've done
I shouldn't have burned myself to enhance your grace
I should've heard the voice of reasoning telling me to run
I should've placed myself over you
I shouldn't have embraced what I struggled through
You deserve to be alone forever
With your whiskey and wine
But oh lord, you are so clever
Make me question if anything was ever mine
Why don't you leave once and for all?
Chug alcohol till you go insane
What even gives you the audacity to call
Now that I know I should've left you to be run over by a train
Past all the bullets, I could've run
Only if it wasn't for the things I should've done

Hey, there depressed souls! Happy New Year's Eve to all of you!
Now, to address the elephant in the room, where had I been for two weeks? I missed the previous update and almost missed this one as well.
Well, boards are coming and boy, was I caught up in studies! And I would be lying if I said I had the poem ready and forgot to publish because I will be honest, I didn't. I haven't written anything for three weeks. I have been using the poems I had written before. RHYMER'S BLOCK AGAIN!?
Anyway, I did manage to not miss this update even if I am publishing so late into the night. Hope you enjoyed it.
Vote, Comment, and Share.
Happy New Year's Eve once again. May the new year bring you immense joy and glory.
See you Next Year!
