All the Things You Do

As usual, you smile at my downfall I will endure this pain and get on the ball I must mend my broken wings to fly I will lend you a hand as you pass me by You will see me rockin the misery boat You will smile with glee as soon as I'm gone You will see me aboard the misery boat You will wave goodbye and good luck to move on Love is a tennis match for a game of two...it's all fake news and the bothersome blues I will survive this hardship before me with nothing to win and nothing left to lose Believe that I can escape these waves of emotion with or without your guidance Relieve the scars that refuse to heal and make me smell your faithful fragrance Too long have I been crying these tears of shame Too long have I longed to belong in this love game It's been a while since you've even considered my utmost needs I must get off the misery boat and cut down some worthless weeds If only you'd listen to my plea If only you'd come clean to me Go on and tell the truth of me and you Instead, you left me in pieces out of the blue I thought better of you The things I say are true I sought your voice of benevolence I rode the tides of tribulation without your guidance Now, I must leave Please do not grieve You should have gave me an ear to hear me out Of course, you let me down without a doubt I guess I will be rockin the misery boat With or without you...it's the things you do I suppose I will be on my own on this trip with this note I wrote It's about all the things you put me through -March 26, 2018-
