Holy Acrimony

once upon a time
before time was upon us
our hearts were conjoined
connected at the cusp

it was never in question
i knew i was loved by you
you use to love me the way
i would love me if i were you

now all of those emotions
have turned into rancid rust
our love has decomposed
and spontaneously combust

maybe it was to much to ask
to be loved so selflessly
maybe to want your all
is a bit selfish of me

but half-assed
is no longer good enough
its all or nothing baby
if you want all my good stuff

you see, i like it too
all the sweet things i do for you
and that is in no way comparable
to a paycheck and an occassional screw

i need the kinda love and affection
that goes beyond an erection
don't want to have to wonder where you are
your eyes always point in my direction

do you honestly expect me
to just sit around and wait for you
i love you's are meaningless
if your actions dont offer proof

maybe this is our true beginning
the absolute ending of trust
forever connected yet dissected
and somehow i must adjust

our thick has got so thin
its made thin the new thick
and for better or worse has lost
the ring it had to it

so tell me, do you take these words
scribed by a once devoted wife
manifested in holy acrimony
"Get The Hell Out My Life"

till my last breath
and this world i depart
i am exing you
out my heart

i guess i should say thank you
you have shown me who you are
and this time
..this time
..finally
i believe you!!!!
