Map
of Shame

The damp imprint left on
The bedsheets where we just laid down with each other
Is nothing more than a
Map of the lies of this secret life
We are living
A journey we have embarked on
Foolish or not
It is what it is
She knows something’s up
And my husband does too
But we can’t seem to stop
Or jump off this fast moving vehicle,
That will either crash, burn out or run out of gas
This barreling train of passion will
Eventually jump the tracks
We will be held liable
For the damage we are doing
But for now,
The damp imprint left on
The bedsheets where we just laid with each other
Is nothing more than a
Map of the lies of this secret life
We are living.
