Beware of Greeks Bearing Gifts


"Beware of Greeks Bearing Gifts" by Brandon Shaffer

Due to my efforts to forgive an forget,
I've been trapped in a labyrinth of lies.
For ages, the Trojan horse has been set.
I failed to hear the assailant's cries.

The face that launched a thousand ships;
I know that face quite well.
The bane of a thousand relationships;
I know it rings a bell.

Oh yes, She's why I lie awake at night,
My pillow soaked with tears.
I don't know who I am anymore
After she's haunted me for years.
