Draped on the steps
A tear
A moan
A scream
Musing over my shameless missteps
"Why am I creature of deceit?"
Cause pain to the one I love
Hurt the one I adore
Torment the the one I need
I am nothing but a cold hearted cheat
I brood over that fateful day
I was entwined
I was wrapped
I was passionate- with another
You saw the horrid cliche
You traipsed elsewhere
I could feel your pain
Your agony
Your torture
I'll alway remember your cold heartfelt glare
I pressed for your forgiveness
I beseeched
I appealed
I prayed
All I got back was deep grimness
My conscience will be forever absolved
I'll never forget
It will always haunt
Forever clenching
For my love shall never be resolved
