You said to me
Love has legs
It grew out two
Who can I blame
For letting my heart break
For letting your words-
Cut through me like a stake
Hurting me thorough and through
My love you used as a tool
To take me for a fool
My trust you took
But out of the window it flew
You said to me
Love has an expiry date
That applies to me and you
And in case I’m slow
That means that we are through
So I should no longer cling
Nor hold on to you
I know I was a fool
For you to deceive
While I believed-
That there could be
Perhaps a little good in you
You said to me
Once upon a time
‘I loved you too’
But I know the truth
I know I loved,
A heartless man
Who left my heart in tatters
And alone I shall mend
‘The grass is always greener on the other side’ –
Or so he said
He left me for her,
All because she was someone new.
