-Her Schemes and Plans- by Keaton Foster She said that she unconditionally loved me Then she turned and confessed That she desperately needed to go. I stood there in shock Then a wave of relief followed by An avalanche of grief hit me. I knew from that second more That I would forever be burdened By her and all that she had done. No other words were exchanged Only a glance of certain ends And a smile laced with "I win." Fighting for things has never Been my strong suite So I watched her leave. The whole time I was hoping That maybe she was just playing a game And that she would turn back. It was certainly a game One that up until that moment I had no idea that I was playing. I wanted to follow her But I was chained to an Anchor at the bottom of the sea. The rope between was running short Soon the tension would be too great I would be taken down to the depths. Her schemes and plans Only included me up to a point And such a point has easily passed. Love, the greatest of equalizer It turns geniuses into Complete and total morons. I was dumb for her wares I could not get enough of her love And the fringe benefits it offered. Drunk with excess, I was oblivious She easily emptied my funds And took the total of all sums. Oddly, I am not upset I am not concerned about revenge I am only concerned about us. Or as it now undoubtedly stands The lack thereof, what we had And what we would become. Ignorantly I hope and wonder if I will ever kiss her lips again Or hold her close in my arms. Then suddenly the rope snaps tight And down I go into my new life A life without her, without love. I fell for her schemes and plans And honestly, I must admit That if I had the chance I'd do it again… Her Schemes and Plans Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2012 Biography
