A Shadow Has Set In

Even the great are cheated on
what makes me an exception?
call me sweety, yet a pity
when I get a clue
That I am in a long queue.

Tell me you love me
when I am blind to see
The messages in your phone
That make my heart torn
Or when I am deaf to hear
A late night call from your other dear.

I got into this for love
I starve
Feeling ignored
Getting so bored
All attention diverted
My presence neglected.

Gone good days
when our love was all rays
A shadow has set in
So cold and bold
A sight not to behold
Remains a story untold.
