Rebound

You are left handed
I am right
You are out of reach
I am out of sight

You are in another state
I am on my own
You are with someone else
I am living alone

You pretended you needed me
I wondered why
You said I was your everything
I believed your lie
 
You made promises
I thought you could keep
You were shallow
I was deep

You hid your feelings
I suspected you played around
You were toxic for me
I was your rebound
