You’re all I’m thinkin about now
So take a bow
You have to have everyone be in love with you
And then I do…fall in love with you
So take a bow for breakin me
You finally conquered the grand defeat
You a heartbreaker
The grand faker, always gonna be the player
Don’t know why I fell for you
Probably the dumbest thing I’ll ever do
Especially since there’s no future to be
So take a bow, just for me.

Thank you for the feedback, and honestly I didn't mean for there to be sarcasm it was just how I felt, more of a tired and sad poem to me but that's the great thing about poetry, you can see it in many ways<3

"So take a bow, just for me", I don't know why, but that struck me as particularily poignant, there's almost a more than a hint of sarcasm to the whole poem.
