A Woman Alone

My eyes have been opened i see the light I wish the truth was kept hidden from sight My anger now strident riddled with fight want to rage at indifference through the night Silent tears track lines down my face As i think of the things that lead to my disgrace How foolish i was to even give chase Its serves me right to be alone in this place What he said.. i thought he was sincere Or were the words just what i wanted to hear Was it just in my head or did love appear Only to diminish evaporate and then disappear When he first arrived.. I ignored his admiration Played it off as game.. His blatant flirtation I was to afraid to take serious his actual fixation And now that i love him it reached it expiration Why did i think with my heart instead of my head Alone again picking up pieces of love now dead Many friends warned.. Cajoled and said Listen not to the words he whispered and fed Tis lies he spoke as wormed his way To receive my heart and money to pay Only to return to his friends and slighly say See this stupid woman she thinks im here to stay But though i was foolish for short awhile Then Remembered to use my head to reconcile Disecting truth from lies.. meanwhile Recreating my life without any smiles But i cant say i didnt want his love badly Ill never say im not torn its ending sadly I wont deny i love him ever madly And i guess ill keep the happy memories gladly. This woman i am alone without a man Been on my own so long didnt need a hand Til he came along i thought life was grand He turned me all around made a stand Then left me alone as he walked out the door I expected him to return never saw him anymore I dont know if i am just an old whore But why wont anyone love me forevermore
