Midas

I was gold,

you were platinum, darling.

You were cold,

couldn't keep the army.

I would hold,

onto years, I'm trying

to be colder.

I based my love,

on happiness

and that on love,

had no clue it shapes

what you become.

And I thought that,

thought that you had won,

won me over

Midas

I had roamed,

thinking I was broken.

I had grown

thinking I was useless.

Yet you'd shown

you were nothing

But rag and bone.

I'm gleaming gold.

Midas

I didn't know I had it in me,

face a demon and claim my space.

To rid this path and build again,

and make something of my name.

Midas
