Losing To Win

If you knew where I've been
Things that I have seen
The pain and hurt
Losing to win
You might have maintained a love
That was tainted with truth!

If you could walk in my shoes to
See how it feels
You might have changed your mind!
It was easier for you to leave
I rolled up my sleeve because
I was going to cleave to you for life!
You were an essential element in my life and
My future wife but
I never thought the knife of deceit
Could creep in and look so real!

I misread the situation but
If you knew where I've been
Things that I have seen
The pain and hurt
Losing to win
You might have maintained a love
That was tainted with truth 
Because love can suspend the rules!
