Incessant Shame


I laughed just to hide the pain that grew and grew until it had no more room I watched when you said your cruel jokes But what was I to do you created a scar that you can't see you made me feel so unworthy Now I reminiscence but not with joy I remember the words that you spoke and the despair I felt but you don't remember anything Now the mirror in my room only reminds me of the day of shame the day that you poisoned with your venomous words I will not live in this shame anymore because you was the cause of it
