The Worst Things
The worst thing I ever was,
Was poor.
Now I hoard money behind closed doors.
The worst thing I ever was,
Was empty.
Now I work my ass off to keep plenty.
The worst thing I ever was,
Was broken.
Now I better myself,
My memories a token.
The worst thing I ever was,
Was used.
Now my walls protect me from abuse.
The best thing that happened,
Happened in November.
Now I go back and vividly remember.
The worst thing I ever was,
Was yours.
Because you me feel that I was just that:
Yours.
And then you proved how much I wasn’t.
