Your Un-Paid Prostitute
I was your un-paid prossie, Your loose woman, street walker, I’d come around lips glossy, Then you brand me a stalker. I was unaware of it, Feelings under my lace bra, You just treated me like shit, I just ‘your harlot’ left scarred.
Convenience brought me there, I was not on Cupid’s train, Ruthless: you just stripped me bare! A hooker to nurse your pain. You used me as an outlet, Like the tissues by your bed! I’d fuck away all your frets, I choked on lines that you fed.
My mascara meowed "SLUT!" My heart howled "LOVE OF MY LIFE!" Your heart’s doors slammed shut abrupt, Wasting me like a wench wife. Airs and graces weren’t allowed, No point in dressing up nice, A chippie: you were never proud, A love-less sliver of vice.
