The Shame Game

Turn the lights on,
For all to see.
A heart on a sleeve torn,
And eyes watery than the sea.

What a heartless monster as you wander!
Once a proud saviour and lover...
I wonder.
You should be ashamed,
It's all eyes on you!

You must have lost your mind,
And turned colder than ice...
A walking emotional prison,
How can you be so cruel?

I hope you are proud,
For breaking a soul for life.
Needless to say,
There's always a price to pay.
