Investment

I never believed in regret. But Isn't it ironic that you can give all of your love, peace and happiness to something or someone? Without any guarantee of a full return on your investment.
And the honeymoon is shorter than reality. And you're left standing in a 180 mirror because the only person riding with is the reflection looking back at you?
Then the home that was supposed to shelter you comes crashing down around you?
Because its full of "me and us" and there is only you.
Now you've become a stranger and there is no trust to comfort you.
Your presence becomes faint as your house is repainted in colors that don't flatter you.
So you're racking up the frequent flier miles, finding more happiness living in the guest bedroom. All the while you see your investment becoming water under the bridge.
So beneath the surface your webbed feet are moving frantically with emotion,
while you keep your cool emotionless.
And its funny because in the hype of the moment everyone turns on you forgetting all the good shit you do.
so whenever you're around its only whispers spoken behind you.
This is what your investment has in return for you!
