Author’s notes: This is not my best, but it's not bad either. It's the polar opposite of a poem I posted on here a while ago, but later took off the site, and that poem is more how I feel: stick with people. This is the devil’s advocate, and is harsher than what I really think. This poem goes out to no one in particular, just to all those who have taken advantage of my good nature. Credit goes to GreenSock’s “Artificial Heaven,” as that is where I got the idea for the short lines in the middle of the chorus. So if you like this, read that one. Enjoy.

You've become a cold, hard user,

treating me like I'm a loser.

Maybe I am just a sucker,

but you are such a mother-fucker.

Yes, getting my love is easy,

but you've become all too sleazy.

You took my heart, yet took no care.

My emotions you did not spare.

Go on, then. At your will, destroy.

(Choose me)

Treat me as though I'm just some toy.

(Abuse me)

But at your side, how can I stay?

(Use me)

Soon enough, you're going to pay.

(Refuse me)

I recall how you were before,

when to set straight, there was no score.

At one time, you were loving, kind.

That time's almost escaped my mind.

Once some seeds of love you had sown,

I was left stranded, here on my own.

Now you just come back for your good.

Come for me- someday, I wish you would.

Go on, then. At your will, destroy.

(Take me)

Treat me as though I'm just some toy.

(Awake me)

But at your side, how can I stay?

(Break me)

Soon enough, you're going to pay.

(Forsake me)

I cannot stand all I feel-

I am not a girl of steel.

Go on, stretch me, soon you will see.

See how much this is hurting me.

Go on, then. At your will, destroy.

(Abuse me)

Treat me as though I'm just some toy.

(Use me)

But at your side, how can I stay?

(Refuse me)

Soon enough, you're going to pay.

(Lose me)

I cannot stand all I feel-

I am not a girl of steel.

You stretched me, so now do you see?

See that you are going to lose me.

All I ask, my cold, hard user:

Which of us is now the loser?
