The Aftermath of the Other Woman
Is this to be left unsaid?
Shall I swallow all my RAGE?
Leave my bitterness for dead
And choke back my honest words
Just to save your peace of mind
Just to stay and keep you mine
Will you condemn me to this?
My oprison made of silence
Stifle me with your false kiss
Solace of a fight denied
I trust you will ignore this
Just know I hate you for this
Doubts to remain unspoken
Shield you from my righteous pain
One more meaningless token
Of what I no longer feel
Feign what you will, false regret?
But I shall never forget
