Caught Again
It became more than just a hunch
When I heard they met again after lunch.
I called and asked him what's up?
But his answers didn't quite add up.
He said this and he said that
And for a while played cat and rat.
I poked and grilled him more and more
Said I wouldn't quit till we settled the score.
Told him I had enough evidence
To expose his decadence.
He pleaded but I wouldn't have none of it
I yelled "OUT WITH IT! Enough of your ****".
But had I known I wouldn't have
Cuz the truth sliced my heart in half.
He confirmed that my guess was right, our love had lost it's clout
It felt like a punch below the belt when he spelt it all out.
He said he wasn't cheating on me with her
Instead, he was cheating on her with me.
I was absolutely dumbfounded
Or should I say absolutely astounded?
All I could do was ask myself WHY
Didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
And too be honest, it really didn't matter
Whether I did the former or the latter
