High Priestess

You are an embarrassment to me that I want to hide.

You are an annoyance to me that I don’t want to embrace!

You were a ‘Headache’ that I wanted to get rid of.

You were a monotony that I wanted to cut down.

You were a pain in the **, I just wanted to shake you off.

You were a laughing stock, whom I took lightly, for all it was a trapping situation.

You thought you could compel me!!?

Do whatever you want to do with me?!

See me acing now.

I am a rider and an escalator, and you are the stairs.

Lower your expectations now.

High hopes are long gone.

You should have kept your gaze down.

You thought I was a victory.

But, to you, I am a drought.

See me now, how I take revenge.

You were in my plot.

See me, how I move on.

How in the blink of an eye can I forget you.

Replace you with my higher unity.

The girl who was locked up is obsessed with freedom now.

Silently, I have loved you for decades, Silently, I have chanted your name for thousand times. I have scripted an
