The Shame

I hope that one day
you'll look into the teary eyes
of your little girl,
as she tells you of the boy
that broke her heart.
I hope that anger boils inside of you,
as you listen
about the boy
she wasn't good enough for.
The boy who's eyes wandered,
and who's lies she believed.

And then you'll realize,
as you stare at your reflection
in those glassy little eyes,
that it was you.

I hope you feel the shame,
when you realize
what you did to me,
all those years ago.
