Trading
Trading
When you are easy to flatter
you offer all on a silver platter
When desperation is your emotion
you will grasp at any false notion
Trading your self-respect
When you put yourself out there
People will use you without care
Your self-love you taint and cheapen
You find yourself lost in a sea of turmoil
Trading your self-love
When you ignore the core of your soul
for those fleeting moments you stole
Blinded by such a false affection
you will yet again suffer rejection
Trading your soul
Your actions create of you a view
leaving your emotions in a torrid slew
Then you try all for damage control
Past your home they will scrawl
Trading your reputation
Trading your heart and soul
for someone you’ll never hold
Was the trade worth it?
To another they will commit
Trading your future
