What You Were

You were my rock, My solid place to land. Or so I thought. You were never really there, You ignored all my issues, You never truly cared. And, as wrong as it may seem, You pushed me toward him, And him toward me. I suppose I should thank you, For showing me what's real, Though you hid your truths. You lied and deceived me, But, that's alright now. I had my share of deceit. Eighteen months were spent, And only ten well-lived. Then, the love went dead. But, I'm not bitter or sad, because I've moved on now. There's better times to be had.
