games of lust
childhood innocence gone, like a faded sign,
my mothers love, a distant memory so unclear,
longing for true love, but it's nowhere near.

hotel rooms and bathroom floors, I feel confined,
it doesn't matter, the façade I wear,
because the pain inside, they never seem to repair.

ask myself why? the answer never strikes my mind,
maybe I've just become like this, shaped by your disdain,
lost in a world where love seems to be in vain.

one drunk call, then another, I drown in despair,
will I ignore them this time? will I let you in again?
because honestly I'm tired, I just want it all to end.
