What do I do?

What do I do?

 

What am I supposed to do now that I can't let go, 

when I can’t stop the pains that constantly flow,

and the tears that remind me of that night,

when you always had a plan that included flight,

 

what do I do now that you have scandalized my name,

what will stop the hurts and the unending shame,

and the tears that remind me of my folly,

when you are going about just merry and jolly,

 

what am I supposed to do now that I can hardly think,

when each time you appear like a phantom till I dare blink,

and the tears that remind me of your lies,

when you are happy and I sit each evening with my lonely cries,

 

what am I supposed to do now that I appear to be a confused fool,

when I can’t stop the others thinking of me as a dumb mule,

and the tears that remind me of your manipulative ways,

as you are carefree and enjoying the wonderful summer days,

 

what do I do now that this has become my dark reality,

when I can’t stop the fears that constantly attack me,

and the tears that remind me of your kiss,

as you go along happy and full of bliss,

 

what do I do now that this pain is too deep,

when all I did was give you my love to cherish and keep,

and the tears that remind me of our passions at night,

as you pretend that I no longer exist and I am not in your sight.

Your rhythm is well-established, your point well-made, and your vehicle for doing so is ripe with imagery and personality.?
