Her
Liar
Called you that a million times,
Believed it only half the time.
Time
That’s what I wanted to give you,
All I had, every second.
Little did I know,
You were giving yours to somebody else
Saw all the signs
Still didn’t want to believe
That someone who was my world
Had another other than me
How could you lie?
How could you cheat?
How could you deceive?
Say “I love you” to my face
Then go behind and shatter that piece by piece
Pieces
That’s what my heart is in
Tiny, sharp pieces
That you took the time to carve out
Why didn’t you leave?
Since I wasn’t enough
Was that too much?
What did I do?
Did I care too much?
Did I love you too much?
Love
That’s what clouded everything
Made everything a blur
Made me believe there was an “Us”
And made me forget about “Her”
