Dignity

My heart breaks for you, More than it breaks for me, That’s saying something, my dear. The past is in the past. Nothing ever lasts. The future can help us see clear. Sorry about the black sheep. But even the whitest aren’t completely white. I remember when we used to go caroling It hasn’t snowed since. Good thing I travel light. I wonder, Will things ever be as they were? If it makes it easier put the blame on me. I’ve already lost my dignity. I worry about what goes on, When the lights at the house aren’t on? Pretending everything’s okay when it isn’t. How many ways can you twist a story? The truth may never be revealed. Can’t travel back in time. Maybe it’s better this way. If you know me so well, Why do you not believe in me? Please I already lost everything. Don’t need your sympathy. Please come back to me.
