Shame On Me


I should've noticed that you never actually cared.

Shame on me.

I should have seen that you hated everyone around you, including myself.

Shame on me.

I should have known that he was the only one you cared for.

Shame on me.

I should have seen that you were unfaithful to my friend, as was my boyfriend unfaithful to me.

Shame on me.

I should've tried less to be your friend, but to me, the title 'best friend' actually means something.

Shame on me.

You should've stayed faithful to my dearest friend, however, for he was innocent before you.

Shame on you.

Shame on you for breaking that poor boy's heart.

Shame on you for calling him names and talking about him behind his back.

Shame on you for being all he has, forcing him to stay...

Shame on me for not being able save him before it was too late.
