Predator

My darling, wolf in sheep's clothing
If only I had known
That a face so magnificent
Housed a heart of stone

I should've noticed the venom in your kiss
But I was foolishly lost in love, in all it's bliss
When I finally did realize, it was already too late
You already had my soul
You had utter control

I remember your malicious gaze
Marring your pretty face
As you told me "Well, you weren't even worth the chase."
And I remember my heart silently shattering into millions of shards
Not once had I ever thought that this would be in my cards

I remember your words distinctly: "I was the predator and you were the prey"
It plays over and over again in my head like a film reel
Yet in all this hurt, I formed a heart of titanium and steel

My darling, wolf in sheep's clothing
You will never see me cry
The truth is, when push turned to shove, I got over you in the blink of an eye
So keep claiming to be this wonderful "predator"
In the end, I am still going to be The Discreditor

Great piece of writing!
Do not let anyone put you down.
The experience has only served to make you stronger:
"in all this hurt, I formed a heart of titanium and steel"

Stand up for yourself.
That's the way to go!

Thank you so much for the welcome :-)

There certainly are plenty of predators out there that would rather be right than do right. Being a good person takes effort, being a bad person only requires getting up.angel devil teddybear

Caylan this is a fantastic write, even the title is distinguished, Predator! I would like to suggest, just for your own comfort, a listen to Adele ... Set Fire to the Rain.. it just makes you feel good! Especially if your heart of titanium and steel needs a bit of a soothe! Very powerful song along the theme of your write!

Thanks, guys. Yeah, I got stung pretty bad, but you know what they say: once bitten, twice shy. I learned a very valuable lesson the hard way, but Adele and The Script got me through it. I am a better, stronger person because of that, but I can't say the same for him. In the end, I came out with scars, but they'll allow me to make better decisions next time??

"wolf in sheep's clothing" and "heart of stone" I am familiar with.
Passive aggression got the better of me.
Thank God I'm free.
Welcome.
