I didn’t believe the words you spoke
But you whispered them in my ear
With such passion
And when I brushed them away
You forced them into my hand
And made me believe
And now those words you spoke
Are whispered into her ear
The confidence you gave me
Has just been ripped away again


Your borrowed words
Pierce me like rusty nails
Infecting my soul
Turning my heart stale
Making me regret
Believing your words


In darkness I was only yours
The best you ever had
You made me feel like your smile
Was meant only for me
Every breath taken from you
Was for me
But now you breathe for her
And turn away from me in the night
Disregarding the pain you have inflicted
Upon me with your betrayal


Your gentle touch
Is painful now
As the memory
Lingers on my skin
Burning as it moves
Over my fragile heart


The intimacy I shared with you is gone
And I try to make up for it
With someone else… in vain
You share that love with her
As I make a futile attempt with him
And end up hurting myself more
When I come to the realization
That those feelings will not be matched
With anyone but you
