"you dont know what you got 'til its gone."
the words spoke to me after all that "they" had done.
brought me hope through false pretense,
so false hope broke now a chance to repent.
ive failed myself in them letting me down,
only because i let them in too soon now that's coming around.

it stings too deep for me to even think
that the moment it was all said and done, was when i started to sink,
deeper than six feet and covered over with thick sheets,
wrinkled in irony and stained with their mistreats.

i hope the guilt builds and weighs them down to the ground
and they learn the hard way "what goes around comes around."
and maybe they'll stop and think how it feels to lack,
the self esteem and trust of being stabbed in the back.

Ouch.

And you don't have to hope for karma.

It'll happen.

Have a smile, on me.
