I've scorned and derided,
Needled and spited,
Those, who are closest to me.
I've cheated and lied,
Vilified and decried,
Those, who are closest to me.
I've toasted many glasses
With strangers in places
Where I shouldn't have been.
I've smoked and laughed,
Admired strange ***
In lands where I cannot be seen.
But mention your name,
And all seems so vain,
Those promises I failed to keep;
The losses that haunt me in sleep.
Despite confessed sins,
My transgressional whims,
I know I've always been true;
And when I bow out,
My whisper will shout,
Above all, I've always loved you.
