A Beautiful Disaster

These months were a battle
Of love and my pride,
Pride chose to surrender,
But I didn't mind.
I sang my own ballad
Along to your chords,
You failed as my shield,
I kept being your sword.
You asked for the world -
I could give you much more.
True life was somewhere
Behind the locked door.
Through all your nightmares
I kept holding your hand.
I drained my own sea
For your castle of sand.

Love made me its slave -
It's my porcelain strength.
Now beg for forgiveness,
Accept my demands!

You're charming, unique,
And your look is brand-new.
Your face in the mirror
Is one love for you.
One slut cost you more
Than the tears I shed,
And seeing you two
Made me feel just regret.
Now beg for forgiveness,
Feel guilty and pray!
Remember those months
And the last summer day.
I tried to be perfect,
I was at my best,
You turned all my life
To a terrible mess!

Love made me its slave -
It's my porcelain strength.
Now beg for forgiveness,
Accept my demands!

Accept my demands!

"You failed as my shield,
I kept being your sword"

No way... I fell in love with this line... Powerful stuff. The whole poem was. But this line.. whew.

I agree. That line was powerful and I loved the imagery.
