Just a Friend
You opened up to her,
And let her walk in the door.
Promised you’d never hurt me,
But I’m more broken than before.
A simple ‘I’m sorry, I ed up’
And I’m expected to forget.
Nevermind your lying,
As you continue with no regret.
I’m not allowed to be angry,
You just can’t understand.
I’m just supposed to forgive,
Place my heart back into your hand.
‘She’s just a friend’
‘Nothing to worry about’
That line alone,
Is enough to raise my doubt.
Tell me she’s no threat,
Yet you call me her name.
You don’t care how bad it hurts,
And someone has to take the blame.
We should’ve gotten passed this,
Kept it just between us.
I’m sorry our relationship,
Is not open for her to discuss!!
Maybe you didn’t cheat,
But I’m hurt just the same.
You can’t even see I’m broken,
Like to you, I’m just a game.
Seems like you don’t even care,
You completely broke my heart.
You only want her “friendship”,
Even if it tears me apart!!
