The prize

By Jamielee82

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You let them have you so easily so soon They smirk as they leave your bed Did you catch his last name? As he walked out of your life forever Did he promise you the world? And then leave you crying? Your better then that Don't you know? They see you as a prize that they've won for their shelves And you are a prize to those who love you to those who know you But not to them Don't give in resist temptation for temporary satisfaction replacing long term effection.
