Undone

by Michael D Nalley   Jun 18, 2008


You wonder what I want to run for
The knot was tied, I was done for
You needed someone, I was elected
At first I did not feel a bit rejected

In the beginning it all seemed fine
You did your thing and I did mine
I tried so hard to be your trusted friend
Even when you couldn't hold your end

Now it seems we have come undone
From a battle that can't be won
Each of us expecting some gratitude
That does not seem to be our attitude

Did we deserve everything we got?
In the conflict that we have fought
Are laws made only to be broken?
Like the sacred vows we have spoken
