Cheating Lying Now I'M Crying

There is nothing worse than knowing
All the love you have been showing
To your spouse for many years
Could instantly just disappear
From their heart--till nothings left
Because of another theft
Stealing their love far away
Now your regretting the day
Your emotions ran so wild
You were clueless like a child
Believing all the years ahead
Would be great and void of dread
It was nice the first few years
Full of happiness--no tears
Till one day he started to
Avoid touches made by you
Kisses started getting fewer
Your world started turning bluer
Till the day you figured out
Why this distance came about
A new lover took your place
Staring now into the face
Of a liar, jerk and cheat
All the past days on repeat
In your head--you hurtly say
Take your stuff and go away

Hello again Robin ooh boy do I remember this. 10 years down the drain. This woman ended up liking another woman. So I hope your heart heals quickly. Took me 4 years. I`m married again going on the 11th year. I hope you find someone new. Thanks for sharing this. Writing always helped my healing
