Gentle Heart

Your compliments were all pretend.
You said that I was your best friend.
You used me for your benefit.
Pig-head attempt at dominance.
Unmasked terrible thespian,
you came for me over again.
I won’t instigate but will begin
to bring this battle to an end.
Consider me your opponent.
Legitimate, moral, genuine.
I stand up for rights and contend.
Only narcissists would take offense
to my rights to self-defense.
I'm an underdog guardian,
total knockout, victorious.
