love bomb limerence
vicious circle game
devalued discard
always ends the same
around mulberry bush
Pocketful of pox
looping rosy ring
puppet in the box
coiled up so tight
crumpled under lid
tensed for button push
blind, deaf, mute and hid
stored untreasured
animation suspends
kept frozen on ice
bad case of the bends
in love or obsessed?
self-imposed deity
longing to belong
no reciprocity
you were the cat's paw
they stole what you earned
all the hot chestnuts
while you got burned
you were just the bait
dangling on a hook
gone a cat-phishing
drowning in the brook
my advice to you
choose yourself today
get the hell out of Dodge
run to, not away
The tie that binds is
trauma bonded knit
crocheted to keep you
mummified in it
swim out of the net
to see more clearly
in rear view mirror
cardboard family
high tail out of there
without backward glance
find your own meow
while you got a chance
