Burned Bridges
My pride is bruised
My heart’s been used
My mind’s abused
I’m so confused
Your love had ridges
You burned our bridges
Ignored my wishes
Threw me like dishes
I once felt whole
you torched my soul
If heart break’s the goal
you played a good role
I sink into sadness
I echo the madness
Facedown in my mattress
Like a Hollywood actress
Romantic malpractice
Your love’s like a cactus
I’m pricked by your thorns
And I drown in your storms
You were a lesson to learn
Touched your fire til I burned
You turned my heart into an urn
Now you’re no longer my concern
