What Happened to Her
You were the best thing that happened to her.
Her eyes would light up upon seeing you.
She would do anything for you.
Support, encourage, and promote you.
You would do anything for her;
Only in the beginning.
Until you got comfortable
Then her worth to you became such as a slave to a master
You became too busy, preoccupied
Demands with no return
Still She served you, stayed on her knees and worshipped you,
All the while you stood with your whip of selfishness raised
Until one day, she realized that whip was only to protect yourself.
She got up off her knees and snatched the whip out of your hand.
In her eyes, there was no more light,
She was physically there, but the old her was gone.
