I danced the night away
in the arms of a crook
I let him take away
everything he could
I am left behind without a heart
I am left without a smile
I take steps forward but I stumble
I try to move on and I crumble
He locked my heart along fellow fools
He keeps it in his treasure chest
He joggles them like a clown,
day and night bouncing up and down
I don’t feel like running away
from apologetic stares
I gave it all up to the play
and I have lost, yet again
m.b.
