I have decided;
tomorrow you will not exist
so bring tomorrow now
fade until you are gone
for you are not welcome
It’s easy to inherit words of hate
deride someone, tear them into tender shreds
morsels of taint blown out
It’s easy to throw bitterness and shade
until the lake consumes us both
I choose to stand between extremes
I neither hate you nor fear you
you repulse me
as I have been repulsed many times
by a look my gut says is false
and I say nothing, though I should
too late, not too late, I move on
thinking not of your attempted control
but of what stands after
when you are gone and nothing of my world
smells of your arrogance any more
when your belief that you know what I am thinking
has washed away with time
reducing you to a memory I
try to lose and find that I can
and the power you thought you had
has also receded, a dread vanquished
showing there was never anything
but an empty shoreline
and sea, going out, out, out
with you
running ever after it
tomorrow you will not exist
so bring tomorrow now
fade until you are gone
for you are not welcome
((hugs))
very tough!
Incredible! <3
Some relationships do just fade away

Choosing not to share in another’s illusion of power vanishes them.
