A tale of shame
                My heart skipped a beat
              as she entered the room

            Did I offer her my love too soon       
          I should have let the roses bloom
         
          I climbed onto my serious shelf
            Deep enough to drown myself
     
          A  hundred pages of screwed up letter
        Hoping my pen would make me better
           

            Foot in mouth disease for me
          A fool for all her friends to see

      Ten years gone my shame wont  leave
          I embarrassed myself and family
