Chilling feelings run down my spine
Like juice from a grape vine
Fear in control of my mind
My spirit, no longer mine

Is she about to pull the plug?
(is my flaw that bad)
Is there no right in my wrong?
(this is just sad)

I'm always at fault
Never her fault
Was what I thought
So my apologies I brought
To appease her hurt

I'm at it again
Nagging again
Complaining again
Frustrated again

I crave attention too
Not only you do
This is supposed to be two sided
But you're a one way traffic

You paint me the villain
And you the saint
I'm not to expect too much
But you expect much from me

Your vile lips lie they love me
Your actions are on the contrary

Is it wrong to be faithful and true?
Is it wrong to give and expect in return?
Is it wrong to give roses of red only to get violets of blue?
Is love meant to be G-I-G-O or forever young?

I'm I mixing up things
Or can't see the picture clearly cos im in the frame?
Let go of this feeling
And quest for a new soul mate?

drops pen
sobs
*writing again....

These are my questions
This is my lamentation.
