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.
