Shame – Joy Woolford
Shame
Calling your name
Wants to bring you down
So you can never be found
Shame
Is not a game
It hurts and smarts
Like long pointy darts
Shame
Meant only to maim
You can give it back
To the source of lack
Shame
A slow burning flame
Extinguish the burn
Never to return
Shame
Is all about blame
Doesn’t exist
A dissipating mist
Shame
Just a freeze frame
A moment in time
To be redefined
Shame
Has no claim
Let it go
From whence it came
