Finding Love On the Internet

I searched for love on the internet,
Then, at last you and I finally met
You found me on a certain dating site,
And wooed me with all your might
Even claiming I was the one for you,
I believed you really wanted me too
You lied about being in love with me,
Saying you would make me so happy

You promised me that we would wed,
And that thought was always in my head
Why would you have ever lied,
And make me think you had died?
You talked up such a big game,
But instead ended up being so lame
Now thanks to all of your lies,
I'm older, warier, and much more wise
