sentenced

they sentenced me to 
pay off your credit cards and
back tax ring that bell

they sentenced me to 
be subjected to grumpy
not so special day

they sentenced me to
wish I didn't waste my time
trying to be sweet

they sentenced me to
wonder about your motives
it feels so phony

they sentenced me to 
first take back my heart and then 
protect it from you

    Hey, good writes on a person that doesn't sound too deserving of you! I liked your comment you said about love of odd numbers. My numerology is 5 and 7. So I love that too!
