Got That Good Good

To love and claim something that doesn't belong to you
Happens a lot in this world, so what's a girl to do?
You approached me with your lies and all of your charm
Telling me I'm your one and only, there was no cause for alarm
I thought I had the good good and I was your only one
Quickly did I learn that you were only out to have fun
I started to catch feelings and wanted you for myself 
That was never on your mind, you're only capable of loving yourself
You did all the right things to get me I must say
You're here today, gone tomorrow, how do you pass your time away?
I know that you are chasing more skirts than I can count
As long as I am one of them, who cares about the amount
I know I got the good good and it always prevail 
I am chasing you now my dear and I promise not to fail
So you just keep on chasing skirts cause right here I shall be
Loving and claiming something that will never belong to me
You have made it known in your heart, I shall not be found
As long as I got that good good, you will forever be around
You see I know I'm loving and claiming someone who will never love me
Its easier to love this way than to set this love of mine free...

This is reflecting sadness but harbors reality. I've been there a few times. Sometimes love can really hurt..... If you let it.... Nice entry.... Congrats.... Jake
