You asked me if I understood as if
I was a child in need of educating
But perhaps I was continuously playing
the fool in your reckless pantomime
Never what you wanted only what
you needed to feed your ego
For I was a drug and you an addict
looking for a fix
When the truth was that you never
loved me just the idea of who
you wanted me to be
And yes sadly, I understood the difference
Neglected Worlds
