A Wounded Wife

You went on with your life With someone who is not your wife Now being faithful and true Is this really you? I gave my all and all I had To keep you happy and not sad Did I fail you yesterday, fail you today Fail you enough to make you look her way You were my alpha and omega;my soul mate She reeled you in and you took the bait Lived by your every word;believed what you said you'd do Went along with all the lies; though I knew they weren't true Painted a picture you wanted everyone to see Fooled no one; not even me Shocked and confused For my love was abused If I was not all you wanted and not worth the wait Then why did we set a date? A date to marry; a date we carried The vows made in October are now dead and buried. Forgive me for being bitter and unkind Forgive me for not leaving our past behind No contact with me keeps her mind at ease This is a cycle; your ex and me; doesn' t she know this happens in threes
