It’s a difficult taskConstantly do what you ask.I do try to perform,But can’t forever conform.To please you, I attempt,Yet, I’d like a rare exempt.I’m just an ordinary person,So, please see reason.My mind is in a muddle,Heart, heavy with trouble.I be...

I had trust in all you said,Faith in everything you did,But you let me down,When you were killed. This is a big disappointment,A bitter pill to swallow.Do you care?Do you even know? Thought we were against you,Determined to put you down,Darkening you...
