Notes About The Poem
A country song i wrote and used an app to make it into a demo with music and vocal.
Listen to poem:

No Shame On Me

It's an old story
I'm sorry to say
Why can't we ever learn from others mistakes?
No, we have to go all in, get down in the dirt, roll up in that sorrow and covered in hurt
The best I can hope for now
Is a clean break, just let me go
For heaven's sake

Haven't you done enough to me? You've had your fun and now you want my dignity. 
Well I may have fallen hard
Into your open charming arms
But baby now I'm standing on my feet
You'll not fool me twice,and put your shame on me

Yea You've heard it before
Good love gone bad
The liar, the cheat, 
who knocks you off your feet
The love that's blind, will fall everytime
But baby I'm through believing you I'm out the door
I just wish we'd finally be able to see before we're love sick and heart sore

Haven't you done enough to me? You've had your fun and now you want my dignity. 
Well I may have fallen hard
Into your open charming arms
But baby now I'm standing on my feet
You'll not fool me twice,and put your shame on me

But we are different you say
I've never felt this way
You are the only one I'll ever need. 
No one ever felt this way
I promise for the rest of my days
I will love you, oh ill love only you…

Haven't you done enough to me? You've had your fun and now you want my dignity. 
Well I may have fallen hard
Into your open charming arms
But baby now I'm standing on my feet
You'll not fool me twice,and put your shame on me
Oh no there's no more shame on me

inspirational words/song, one filled with strength and tenacity. These words remind me of my dating days (long ago): Haven't you done enough to me? You've had your fun and now you want my dignity.
