Betrayal - Mister Blue Eyes

You were a beautiful man with cobalt eyes so blue
            I wasn't looking to find love or anything like it
Then I saw you, your eyes sparkling, you smiled and then I knew
I was now taken by your beautiful looks and your wit
                        We went for coffee and had our first date the next day
I was so smitten instantly and wanted you to stay
You lured me into your bed, saying you loved me, had your way
      We met again for several more passionate dates
            I had no idea you lied and already had a mate
                        Then there was nothing, no contact, I did nothing but wait
My heart broken and my pride hurt, I shouldn't have trusted you
            Then I saw you that day with her at the local market
      Pretending to not know me while playing and flirting away
            I knew then I would have to tell her and change your fate

Yes, tell her - the crouton deserves no mercy. How many will relate to this? Straight-fact told and delivered, great kick (for him) at the end. All the best ... CayCay

Such a beautiful and heartfelt write this is, there is nothing more painful than knowing that you were betrayed, used, and in reality that person hasn't got any emotions for you, such a thing can break you, but karma always plays its role, I really like the rwist in the end, that guy sure deserves it, I wiah you best of luck in the contest, good luck and have a really nice day
