Phantom Prince

some are born without a soul
without a heart
but they watch and learn
how to mimic us
they 'feel' you out
your weaknesses attract them
like a delible mark on
your forehead
you look into their
mesmerizing eyes
so full of emotion..
see the tears?
their suave, practiced entrance
flowers to impress
phantom prince..
you've got it down good
the right words..the feigned sweetness..
right to the compassion and loving
it was good for you for awhile
rather you pretended it was good..
so many lies, so much cheating,
narcisstic creature you surely are
no remorse, not a care,
you threw us away like so much garbage
walking away without a glance
breaking hearts, destroying lives,
taking everything with you..
leaving us so alone, so broken..
i've tried so hard to climb out of
this dark pit of despair
angry at myself for being so bloody gullible!
they say move on..
move on to where? to what?
when you left it feels like we ceased to exist
there's noone now phantom prince..
just me and the girls and memories
better forgotten

nanc54: the hurt you write is palpable, but i must disagree, everyone is born with a soul i believe. some relationships are fulfilling for blessed time then change, I know. Still, pain and joy are equal parts of a life well lived i think. my best wishes to you. ;-]

I hear the message and feel sad for your pain. Like GG, though, I know all are born with a soul, some just do not always listen to its inner wisdom.
