Taken Apart

So you start over again and find someone new.
When you start a new life, new house, new town,
How easy it is for your guard to come down.
Locked in her house, you enact deja vu.

On the sofa, exhaled breath, aimlessly staring ahead.
Virtue riven, monogamy taken, the taker grinning.
Why did you do this. Again? Realisation spinning
My thoughts. My new beau will hold me later in bed.

"This is rubbish.” She screamed. “You're just talking shit.”
This lady before me who'd hurt as a child.
Her formative years continually defiled.
Silent. I know this feeling. I invite the first hit.

The theme played out, repeated, destroyed, I took all the rage,
I'd earned it all, all the applause. The last player on stage.
