Cheater


I trusted him with everything

I gave him all I had

I never thought that I’d be

The girl he left for dead

 

He’s been gone for a while

The wounds he left bleed fresh

A New Year's to remember

A night he does regret

 

I see him in the hallways

Though our eyes rarely meet

But when they do I see it

The guilt that hides beneath

 

My trust in him was broken

In pieces it now lies

But finally I see him

Without his sad disguise

 

My innocence is shattered

And now it’s part of me

The girl who loved a cheater

That’s all I’ll ever be
