I am peace keeper, a fool
see my heart is it tied upon my sleeve
with a sash of blue
it is the reason I hurt so much
always playing the fool , the joker
living life through whimsical humour
but my face it reads truth it cannot lie
I tried appeasing you so many times
but I tired
I aged , with age comes courage
a courage that I thought would never be mine
I did away with stroking your ego,
I served my time
12 years under your lock and key
I never once asked you to put me on a pedestal
All I asked was for you to love me as much as I once loved you
You strayed
I was weak once
but twice I had to be done with you
Yet you still left me broken in two
You left rage and anger so deep in me that
If you were to stand before now
I could snap you in two but
I am peacekeeper and but no longer your fool
See my eyes they no longer cry tears for you
See my face it reads truth it cannot lie
my eyes no longer look through eyes of love
they see and they just pity you
