Fallen Soldiers

Please stop acting clueless

like it’s the first time

this has happened.

I think you enjoy seeing

disorderly  conduct in your mental space.

If you didn’t,

you wouldn’t allow it in your world.

As the pandemonium unfolded

instead of me feeling like loyal subject

you treated me like an abandoned dog

left without food,

while all the yard dogs

battled for the meat.

There were the things in your life

that I thought were important to fight for

yet you were willing to throw it all away.

So why should I assume

that I am any different

That I am not just as easy to discard.

The fear in my heart

you planted.

The seeds of distrust

you sowed.

The fruits of disloyalty

you harvested.

And now you walk around

waiting  for me to accept

all the nonsense. 

NOPE

Look, you already knew

where my loyalty was.

I proved it to you

when I  fought like a soldier

in your war.

But the war is over,

and the wrong team won.

You were defeated

 & you’re too blind to see.

Reason why, you abandoned

your other warriors.

 for the double agent

on the other team.

So when you left us,

we got separated

and ambushed.

Now your warriors

are dead.

I’m  the lone soldier standing.

Wondering if

the time you committed to me

though shorter

than your fallen warriors

will be dishonored as well.
