Heart Breaker

Heart Breaker

You trusted me with your heart
And I smashed it to pieces
You wanted a soul mate
And I wanted to play Casanova

I could break a thousand hearts
And still not come close
To the pain I caused you
When I stabbed you in the back

I left you broken and bleeding
In a desolate wasteland of despair
Cold and lonely, I watched you shiver
As the love faded from your eyes

Rationalization is the antidote to a guilty conscience
So as I found carnal delights and sweet ecstasy
Between the sheets with strangers
I told myself, all is fair in love and war

But time and karma are strange bedfellows
And the charm and seduction
Of my cult of personality
Began to wither and fade

On warm summer nights, I lay beneath the sheets
My lover asleep beside me
As the moonlight dances through the bedroom window
I know why I’m cursed to shiver

I could offer a half-hearted mea culpa
Or simply the truth
That vanity is almost irresistible
Once you’ve had a taste

 

That was interesting. Lots of imagery! I liked it.

 

This was a powerful read. I quite enjoyed it. I could relate in a spiritual way.

 

Thanks a lot for the kind feedback. I truly appreciate it.

 

This is Love.

 

Thanks Cam.
