Left to hang



Today mattered  
Right now equals single
Early shattered  
Once facts are no longer fare
I thought it mattered to love once  

Arrangements of departure
Slowly plotted
1 never danced around 1s ankles
Led to believe left to hang  

Never again with any other body.
I feel 2nd choice.
I want him a little less.

Trapped in mystery and following a blind faith.
What has begotten my mind so much
That the gut stopped its warning.

My shame built walls that hide my ques for my digression.

Faults sustained from thoughts that held no merit
I choose no voice I am myself so I must walk.

Barr none fade all.
I'm now 1 of his statistics.

I shall fall into a lonely swing.
With pressure and constriction.
Cut me down is nothing new. With no new outcome.
