The Truth

I'm in this unrealistic world of mines
Where you love me and have faith in me
You care for me and love to show me off
You take me home to you mother and father
And both of them are ecstatic to finally meet me
You treat me like you can't ever live without me
When we're surrounded by beautiful women
You look at me like no one can compare
You're a gentleman and you would never harm me
But when I snap back to reality 
I realize, I was just daydreaming all along
You're the guy you was the first few dates
I love you with all my heart, but you don't love me
I'm faithful, but you're one of the most unfaithful guy out there
You don't care, you'd be caught dead first before being seen with me
You never even had the thought of bring me home to your family
They don't even know the girl madly in love with you exists
You treat me like a piece of trash 
You bring other women home for your pleasure
While I'm in the other room crying my heart out
You're a player and I know it's true, but I can't leave
You have destroyed my self-confidence
You made me believe that no other man out there
Will ever want to give me a chance or love me
Now, I'm forced to be another piece of a collection.

Anthony Nutter August 14, 2010 at 4:47 PM This is such a sad write, entertaining, but sad. For a person to think so little of themselves to allow this to continue is shameful. Time to get up, get out, and move on.
