Albatross

Albatross
This man is now the Albatross.
That hangs around my neck.
Into my life he came.
Now it`s a huge mighty wreck.
I don`t give him all the credit.
And take some of the blame.
While I was living my life.
He was playing a game.
He makes me rethink everything.
I have ever done.
Was I ever told the truth?
Or was it all pretend?
I feel so embarrassed.
I feel hurt and used.
I wonder what other women.
Knows what I've been through.
This man is now the Albatross.
That hangs around my neck.
