SHAME

A shadow in the mind
I am now your shame
If my presence does not anger you
Then
You must be lost without your fool
You leave the conversation open
Yet are deaf to all my words
Why do you facilitate a perpetual lie
Are you frightened to be exposed of your disguise
You speak to seek a perfect mate
Eyes for those in your perfected state
What you aim for is a labour mule
It's why I cast you from this imperfect jewel
