the knight of wasted time.
to turn a phrase about you,
turns my stomach into knots.
to twist my pretty words around you,
sliding over your unworthy skin...
a ribbon of rhyme, in time
suffocating you as it makes its way,
hungry,
down your throat.
you are the knight of wasted time,
wielding your sword of weak excuses
and your shield of obligation,
which blinds you.
You'll never see me coming..
so wrapped up in yourself.
I'll end you quietly,
strangling you with
words left unsaid.
I want to break up with you
tomorrow, the fourteenth of February.

Nooooo! Why did you use "rhyme in time"? *runs away screaming*
That's the bad news (my negative reaction). The good news is, that the rest of the poem was mostly good for me. It was a "nice" read filled with emotion. I particularly liked the opening two lines and the ending, very cutting. A good read.
