Untitled
From the persona: Aphrodite
Why do I still care about your welfare; why do I still protect you so?
This I know; from my own perspective you do not deserve it at all!
I do not call on common friends seeking to discredit your name!
Why do I still care to ensure that you will be safe, secure; okay?

So many times I could have lashed back at you, but I paused.
I could stand up; let the truth be known to all, but remain still.
Why these intentional statements, drilling through my heart?
How my misery pleasures you; I do not know... yet, it does.

I have searched high and low; to borrow your tone, but can't.
I do not know how to wear the mask of mean; neither care to do so.
But... if there is a mask that will protect me from you; I'll wear it.
Silently, politely; my heart is bleeding in the face of your laughter.

Oh, Keeper of Peace, please work your magic here; I beg.
My endurance is wearing thin; vengeance is calling my name.
Her spite is enticing me; my mood to soar to the God of War.
Yet, patiently; I wait for when she'll understand this game is over.
