Summary

We should have known what was happening Why did we ever think being manhandled was the same as passion Tossed from hand to hand like the wind Enough? My love This story is yet to begin... Lotus. A plant whose fruit induced a dreamy forgetfulness and an unwillingness to leave. She was angry. At them, at society and at herself. From a young age, she believed that physical intimacy and subtle seduction was the only way to make them stay. The only way to be noticed. The only way to be one of them. No one told her she was wrong. No one told her she was ugly. So she went on. And on... She met different kinds of them. Those males. But this one, well, you probably know about him or about to find out. The one who held her hand, stared longingly into her eyes and took her to heaven, hell and back.

Anger

Those honey brown eyes

A sea of nothing but I felt so alive

But alas they pierced through my heart

Covered up all the lies

Played us both

My mind and soul

Intoxicated by his touch

I guess that’s what happens when you aren’t loved enough

Just an insecure fool

Who thought that worth lay in the hands of a man-whore

They sat back, staring in awe as he swirled and toyed with your heart like a tool

Should have known better

Should have seen through the act

Sitting here now I guess I overlooked the fact, that,

Denial is a cunning bastard

Soothing words covered up the wounds

Shielded us from the blazing hazard

Come to think of it

We should have known what was happening

Why did we ever think being manhandled was the same as passion

Tossed from hand to hand like the wind

Enough?

My love

This story is yet to begin

You let him destroy you

He had no tricks up his sleeve

You knew what he wanted

Yet you believed

“I need him. If I go, my soul won’t be at peace”

Rubbish!

Little did you know that there was a lot you couldn’t see

The sharp smell of the colorless fluid

The late nights with friends

God knows what he was doing

He never hurt you physically, though

Now that’s a different story

Sorry to cut you short

But his “friend” claimed the remnants of my glory
