Ambition suffocated
That ambitious man
According to plans
To plan and concur
Achieve then gain
Hurt those along the way
Selfishly brave

Ambition crazed
Ambitious man
I took your hand with my heart
As her ego fell apart
Scaring inside
Ignoring so many signs
Time after time.
Here we remain back to start at end
I wonder what if we remained friends
Why do I still Defend???
This hurts too much
Let’s go back to pretend.

Ambitious Lover
You took away those covers
Hiding under her ugliness
Ugly me
Shame on you
Shame on truth
For hiding
Showing only when I was crying
Patiently lying

Still here
Still endeared with hope
Searching for your arms to cope
I mine as well take a rope
Ambitiously
And hang
Her emotions
Stop her heart from loathing
Not knowing how to escape
Too afraid to recreate
Something worth something

But instead
She bends her head
And says:
“I’m lucky”

Tragic
Empathetic Dummy
