The Price

I’m stronger than I used to be

much wiser, too

I realized everything has its price

especially knowing you

I can’t play your game

I know how it ends

I feel confused and hurt

while you never care enough

to make amends

Some things aren’t worth it

the price is just too high

sadly – there is no return on investment

so, I’ll keep my self-esteem

and say goodbye.
