Shame On Me

Tears drops

Glistening in the sun

Endless thoughts of despair

Showing in each and every one

 

Look past them

You will find me

Blood boiling in my veins

Because of who think you see

 

Who am I

I don't think you care

Flowing endlessly into a river

I hope you drown while you stare

 

I pity only myself

Underneath a fake smile

Hoping you grow tired

Swimming for miles

 

Are you shivering yet

My heart grows cold

Tears turn to spears of ice

Me, you will never hold
