Losing Streak
On this losing streak
Has to turn around
Strive so hard but cannot escape
Failure to which I am bound
Until starting positive changes
Disappointment will remain on your face
Day after day promise to improve
Clear to see that's not the case
Gone are effortless exchanges
Excited words once eagerly shared
Sitting on sheets together
For a relationship was unprepared
In blink of an eye you lifted my world
A little closer towards the sun
Leaving each trace of regret beneath my feet
No idea what we had begun
All the moments spent since
I've discovered in your company
Collected and shown on display inside
Like antique coins or paintings in an art gallery
Done proclaiming pathetic excuses
Instead of trying my best
You deserve someone who would die in order
To protect treasure buried in your chest
Because your heart is inside a treasure chest
