Vinegar Love

Vinegar Love

Your love is like vinegar.
It's bitter to my tongue,
It burns my heart,
And it pickles my soul.
 
Your promises are as empty
 To me as my bank account 
Was when you were 
Finished with me.
 
To think that I believed 
That you could spend your 
Life sharing good times with me, 
Feeling happy and secure.  

That is just as crazy as 
Believing that you could 
Spin a mountain of manure 
Into a ship filled with gold.
 
My ability to trust 
Has been depleted,
Since all of my hopes 
And dreams of building 
A family with you 
Have been defeated.
 
Thank God your sperm 
Never took me to carry 
A baby full-term.  

Raising spawn from 
You would be like 
Learning to live my 
Life with my brain 
Full of worms.
 
Your head is so huge 
So bald
And so ugly.

The view makes me 
Laugh and 
Smile so smugly.
 
Let's see who you 
Find to take my place.

Poor girl,
After awhile
She will have no 
Smile on her face.

For smiles, 
You and your 
Wretched family 
Will surely erase.
 
So let me move on 
As quickly as I can,
Only then
I might finally 
Have a chance to 
Meet a real man.
 
Goodbye my love. 
It was you, 
Who I cherished 
For so many years.

No longer 
Will I wait 
Patiently for my 
Life to appear.

Now my life 
Will take off,
My dreams shall 
Take place, 
And my tears 
Will dry up 
Like your Mom's 
Ugly face.
