A Lovers Sacrifice

He says he loves me, but I caught him cheating.
So why keep lying, my angers not reseading.
How long has it been going on for?
What number am I, I feel so torn.

Two?
Five?
Seven?

I have to let you go, I know.
I can't let my pain show.
Getting past you is my obstical.
Even though it seems impossible.

People say love is an amazing feeling.
All I feel is my heart breaking, unhealing.
You can live life without me here, I know you can.
Because love is a sacrifice, and a sacrifice is all I am.
