Crown of Shame
Our once “everlasting love”
Has come to its end
There’s no more need
To deny or pretend
It’s difficult and painful
For me to admit
You weren’t fully in the
Relationship and couldn’t commit
The games you played were a
Convincing disguise
Your well executed performance
Deserves a Nobel prize
You toyed with my emotions
As if you found it amusing
Without regard for my
Heart you were bruising
In retrospect you are not
Completely to blame
Not ending it sooner is
My crown of shame
For too long I overlooked and
Made every excuse
Lying to myself your
Actions were not abuse
The road to become me again
will be long
But with every day i will grow
A little bit more strong
