The Only Man I'Ve Ever Loved
Living a lie
for the past eleven years.
Betrayed,
beaten,
broken.
A house,
two kids,
and the finest things money could buy.
But yet he still wasn't satisfied.
Still to this day...
He's the only man I've ever loved.
I felt so safe in his protective arms,
but as he held me those arms were holding another.
The love I felt from him as I looked in his eyes was but love for another;
this would eventually be our demise.
But as I stand here
betrayed,
beaten,
broken...
He will always remain the only man I've ever loved.
