Not Your Trophy Anymore.

October 6, 2008

A poem that’s a little different than most of the others here. But, it is what I was feeling when these words were penned. I hope you find it interesting

Not Your Trophy Anymore

I’m not your trophy anymore.

Not merely an object to feed your ego

nor an instrument to boost damaged esteem.

No longer am I nothing more than your possession,

an amusement to serve your whim.

Now, the tables have turned.

Oh, and you can’t stand it.

I’m not your slave

anymore.

To you, the years are beginning

to not be quite so kind.

And me,

I’m walking away alive and well and still in my prime.
