A warning to any woman, who think she has the right to break my heart.

You have the right to remain clear, calm, and cool.
You have the right to scream like hell.
You have the right to live as free as a bird,
And you have the right to barricade yourself in a cell.

But you don’t have the right to make me sad,
And when you do, you give me the right to cause you pain.
I’m not gonna take it lying down,
My wraith will come down on you, just like the rain.

So ask yourself this question,
Is it really worth trying to play me like a fool.
I’m a menace with no sense of right and wrong.
And I don’t play by others rules.

I will come at you over and over again,
And I won’t rest till I draw blood.
You might even have the upper hand at the start,
But once you get it going, my anger spills like a flood.

So take this as your final warning,
And I beg you to heed it well.
Others have tested me in the past,
And the mightiest of them have fell.

They now know the true essence of the demon.
The malevolent being that resides in my heart.
He does not deal with rejection well.
So if your heart isn’t true, then it’s best you get a good head start.

Or better yet,
It’s best if you don’t get involved at all.
Cause I’m looking for the realest of the real.
A true woman, who would rather die then see me take a fall.

    I loved you once in June
    when your heart seemed warm
    filling my head with misconceptions,
    you swept me up like a raging storm

    like many before and after me
    a string of hearts that never mattered
    left lying in an abandoned castle
    fairytale dreams left shattered,
    but now it’s come full circle
    so it’s time for you to cry
    Your eyes were black with emptiness
    without even a kiss goodbye.

    I am sure you will find another
    to manipulate in time
    Just tell her that you love her,
    in pages of stolen rhyme.
    My heart goes on without you
    but your memory lies in a dark place
    and this song plays as the record skips
    I want to see hurt in your cheating face.
    This will be my last poem of you
    because you are not even worth a sigh.
    Your eyes were black with emptiness
    without even a kiss goodbye.

    I loved you once in June
    when your heart seemed warm
    speaking of seagulls and deep blue sea,
    you swept me up like a raging storm
    I hope you think of me for a brief moment
    when you hear that Leonard Cohen song play,
    remember my soft voice, my loving eyes
    and the tender heart that you threw away,

    and if ever it is possible
    for you to feel devotion,
    I hope you love with every breath
    and your heart is consumed with emotion
    only to awaken to a note that makes you cry
    when she says she left you for another
    without even a kiss goodbye…
