Willing Whipping-Post

Why always must you be this way
All in Disarray...  Wounded, weary target
These conquests are foolish ends you choose
You bare to bruise... Vulnerable, Volatile Heart
Profiling Men who suit you worst
Your romantic tastes, a burdened curse...
Lonely, Loving victim

Hearts they want just what they will
She wont learn until...Broken, Battered soul
Its I you turn to.. each time, Confide
But Cast Aside, your Caring, Competent friend
Each time I offer consoling thoughts
You go back to the place you fought
Relentless, Repeating game

My sympathy has become cool spite
This surly Knight...Brutal, Brazen thug
You found him and here starts the strife
This Heartbreak life!....Impulsive, Impetuous girl
Don't turn this way next time your burned
Girls make mistakes, and women learn
Messed-up, Masochist Fool!!
