You've done it again! Time and again First hook and then reel Then hurt and release Lay the blame squarely on me You take me for a fool A gullible idiot! Who'll swallow your lies And buy your story each time I am not part of your life anymore but  I need to get on with mine So be sure to burn the bridges Cause I am not turning back anytime. You will always do what it takes To hold my heart ransom Cause that's such a causal approach It doesn't take much to strategize I struggled each day and night To swallow my pain and get on But depression sunk its deadly hooks My flesh was skinned and bare My groaning heard none Cause outwardly I appeared just fine. But you conveniently forgot what u had done And walked back without a care For a doormat you take me So can you step on my despair You think I am waiting around For you to do the same things again Forgive you, for your wrongs and get back from where we left? Change your thinking! Cause that's never gonna happen I have forgiven, but forgotten not I cannot forget or let go For your lessons are deeply entrenched And well learn't One that has a lasting impression My mind wont let it go. Subconsciously I know your capacity to hurt me time and again Cause you feed on my feelings To supplement the ones you lack Grow up, own up, about time u realized. You can't play me and think its fine!

Do you think you can play me?
Giving a day for a selfless endeavor Exercising charitable behavior Immersing oneself for the sake of others One would realize that love doesn't need to hurt As we rode a bus to our immersion In order to fulfill our assigned mission We filled our heads with aims and goals And prepared our hearts for the necessary roles Arriving at our destination It was near to what we've envisioned To be able to visit not once but twice We hope that we were able to suffice Teaching the children and learning as well I believe that we've gained more from our 'clientele' We learned much more as we gave our all We've gained their smiles as we gave so small We've taught and given educational materials But what really lasts are the ideals I just hope that we gave them what they needed I hope that all good seeds have been planted To be able to touch lives and influence It was worth all the expense And to receive their smile Truly makes it worth the while Allotting time for the children's needs Is a way for positivity to breed Having open hands to let children hold We've not only touched hearts but we've also mold Spreading love and blessings Gives one an irreplaceable feeling To be able to help children Is something we'd gladly do again
