The Mask You Wear

 


You speak of boundaries, time, and choice,
With a polished tongue and a softened voice.
You parade as a good son, partner, and friend,
But your mask slips and the lies never end.

Behind closed doors, you wield your words,
A lightsaber of hate, aimed to hurt and burn.
"Just shut your face," you sneered at me,
And I watched your love turn into cruelty.

You praised another’s body to weaken my pride,
Sent pictures, and comparisons—cut me open wide.
Now you say, “Just focus on chores, that’s your place.”
But weren’t you the one who sought a woman of grace?

You claimed you wanted strength, a voice with power,
But only so you could make her wilt and cower.
You preached respect, love, and honour like a saint,
But your actions smeared the words with taint.

You hide behind the mask of a dutiful son,
But if your father saw you, would he be proud of what you’ve done?
Did he whisper from the grave, "Avenge me, my son,"
By breaking down daughters until they come undone?

You speak of love but know only control,
Demand submission while tearing at my soul.
You act as if you’re some righteous, brave face,
But all you’ve shown is a heart devoid of grace.

So keep your pretty lies, your public charade,
The world may buy it, but I’m not swayed.
For I’ve seen the man behind the guise,
And no amount of words can disguise
The darkness you try to dress in light,
The cruel game you play when out of sight.

But know this, I’m no longer broken and small,
Your venomous words cannot make me fall.
I rise with every wound you've tried to inflict,
And I’ll speak the truth you thought I’d restrict.

You may scream of boundaries and boast of respect,
But your own reflection demands you reflect.
And when the world sees you for who you are,
It’s not my face that will be left with a scar.

My Tips Get The Job Done

  Boy, you need gold coins and chains, To feel that silky touch. Honey, being with you meant My soul needed a retouch... You might like maple syrup, But I could never build anything with that softwood. It was like babysitting way into my adulthood... You think your presence made it feel like Niagara? Boy, it was drier than the Sahara. Who gave you the license to operate heavy machinery? You never deserved to be anywhere near this sanctuary. Asking women to "blow" you a kiss, When you are the one too "slow" to catch up, And all you are good for is a diss... You need to work because you don't know how real FORCE  works. You get high on your stupid   WARS — How would you ever know the language of the STARS ? Isn't it funny you were trying to teach  me  about fingers? When I can get myself to sing more with my  ladyfingers ...

Game Of Fire and Ice

Hey Mister, Why won't you play a game of Twister? I promise I won't play coy. Won't you love it if I were your only toy? You can be the Lion in the boardroom, Then make me roar in the bedroom. Let's play the game of fire and ice. You bring the sugar, and I get the spice. I am praying by myself these nights, Drowning my moans when the city sleeps tight. We can play the game of Super Sonic, And then have our own race over some gin and tonic. So find me, like an app can find a phone. No, I won't bring out my Medusa and turn you into stone. I have been getting over my fears, Learned to make my tears into spears. You can take me as you like. We can go until we hear the third strike.

Call Your Wife... Call Your Mother...

  Call your wife. Call your mother. Tell them how you talk to women like me when no one's watching— But of course, I'm the Outspoken B tch*, and you, the Outstanding Gentleman in your suit and tie. But sure— I’d rather be outclass than be hung like sea bass on your trophy wall, smiling silent while you call me “crass.” Your twisted kinks. Your polished lies. You think I won’t roar? That I’ll tuck in my shadow just to keep your sin safe? I own my dark. Loud. Proud. You will not cage me with your guilt-laced chains. If you were so happy choosing her over me, Then go flirt with her . Not me. Don’t you dare come here with your diluted apologies and leftover lust. I’d rather be The villain in your story Than your sidepiece in silence. Because I remember— You were a playboy then , You’re still a playboy now , And every time you smile and say “We’re still friends”… God, I puke a little. You know your name. Don’t play lost boy. Don’t hide behind your “Good intentions.” I used to care...
