When You Left


A few days ago, I was hurt

You promised to stay by my side

 

Alas, you left me

for her

 

The girl who tries to steal you away

The girl who lusts for you

 

You hold my hand

But seem distant

 

You kiss my lips

But it lacks passion

 

You say you love me

But still return to her

 

Can’t you see how much it hurts to be left for another?
