Sorry I find your pain amusing
So it has come to this..
I knew it was only
a matter of time
time slipping away from me
as I watch it stream down the drain
I assumed this would happen
Yet,
something inside of me wanted to see how far I could push
To see the limits strained
and delight in the frustration you express
trying to keep your composure
If you asked if I was sorry,
I'd have to say yes
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
But I don't regret it
I loved every twisted minute of it
At first you didn't realize my manipulative ways
But I began to grow tired of subtlety
Decidedly playing your emotions out in front of me
Letting you know the intent behind my wicked ways
I love you, yes
But dangling you from my strings
leading you astray
and watching the pain in your eyes blossom
Was always too much fucking fun
I couldn't possibly resist
So no, it doesn't surprise me that you're leaving me now
packing your bags, having had enough
It only gives me a sickening satisfaction
to know I did us in
Breaking falsely fabricated bonds of trust and affection
I know I scarred you for life
But these are the types of wounds I like to inflict
Destroying the heart and soul of my lover
Repercussions for trying to get too close
I assume I'll miss you when you're gone,
miss waking up with you
miss our passionate and frenzied love making
Soft kisses on my lips
But,
if you come back to me, make no mistake
I will continue to play my game
Shredding away your dignity and ability to love
All because I find it amusing
I knew it was only
a matter of time
time slipping away from me
as I watch it stream down the drain
I assumed this would happen
Yet,
something inside of me wanted to see how far I could push
To see the limits strained
and delight in the frustration you express
trying to keep your composure
If you asked if I was sorry,
I'd have to say yes
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
But I don't regret it
I loved every twisted minute of it
At first you didn't realize my manipulative ways
But I began to grow tired of subtlety
Decidedly playing your emotions out in front of me
Letting you know the intent behind my wicked ways
I love you, yes
But dangling you from my strings
leading you astray
and watching the pain in your eyes blossom
Was always too much fucking fun
I couldn't possibly resist
So no, it doesn't surprise me that you're leaving me now
packing your bags, having had enough
It only gives me a sickening satisfaction
to know I did us in
Breaking falsely fabricated bonds of trust and affection
I know I scarred you for life
But these are the types of wounds I like to inflict

All because I find it amusing

Nicely penned AlwaysCaliban, I feel refreshed in reading this piece, structured.. differently from your other works, I see your sadistic tendancies shining through here, and I do enjoy it very, very much. Ah, well done anyway, I really did like this one. Had a far more personal and raw tone than the rest.
Please me nice to me, i'm a masochist, after all. ;)

Well this was nothing like I had expected. Quite frankly, I actually think it was light years better. It was like I could actually listen to you admit your manipulative ways (wether it be true or simply artistic expression). I like that you're experimenting with different styles because it seems to be working really well for you. Great job Ms. Caliban.

The manipulative twist has taken its course. Excellent work, Cousin Caliban!

This is a such a beautiful poem. Good work! The feeling is so clear and resonant. It gets down to the root of relationship issues where you can feel it.

Phew! This is like a summer night stroll on aching feet, where each step is kind of painful, but you still want to keep going...
Which is kind of like what you described here, very well in fact. Very well done with this write.
