Am I but your prize to display A trophy to boost your pride Simply part of all you survey A sacrifice to the great diva bride
You make your friends envious Ones purchased with my wallet Malipulations most mischieveous My gullability your grandest yet
You display me like chattel Simply another object to own A new trophy for your mantel An accesory for your proud home
What happened to the true love Now I am but to fetch and carry Only yesterday your turtle dove My back to wall, thrust and parry!
How could a rouse be so complete Manipulations so well planned I had perceived you oh so sweet My defenses so poorly manned
How could I have been so wrong Trusting all I now yield to defeat A woeful tune becomes my song Drug induced haze my soul's retreat
What hapopened to the true love Now I am but to fetch and carry Only yesterday your turtle dove My back to wall, thrust and parry!

About this poem:
Just a made up poem to warn about Confidence Men or Women. They can be very convincing apparently. Met a Confidence Man once and words flowed so easily and with conviction.
Hi boyshchrm...you had me worried at first, my poem ..I am not a trophy...flashed before my eyes..... Well written and many can relate...male or female....sad by so true....ahhhhhh.....Niah
Thanks Niah. I will have to review your poem and hope crevices of my mind did not accidentally use any of your phrases. With some people love is simply a possession. TY

Oh...I didn't mean that...I was concerned for you.....I meant been there got the tee shirt silly, we all use the same words.....how could we not....and we share emotions too....you should know me better....and I am stressing out, as you'd imagine... days before the move and hic-cups at ever turn.....Niah
Not my exact experience Niah, but perhaps with most relationships that go South we feel some of the feelings I have exspressed. Sorry...I live in dire fear of Plagerizig another poet..be it even one line.
