Protect
PROTECT
Protect the one we love
yes we made a pact.
To tell each other everything
was how we were to act.
Keep each other informed,
of the things our loved one did.
Everywhere our loved one went,
silence was forbid.
But then I found you betrayed me,
all of you in fact.
That was the last straw,
and was what made me react.
If I had known the things you found,
or known the things you knew.
I never would have gone to places
looking for our loved one too.
The places that I went to
a woman shouldn't go.
Alone was where you put me,
but how was I to know.
Never will I trust you,
nor will I let you in.
You have betrayed my trust,
and it will not happen again.
