Your Turn

You see it in the way he smiles,

You hear it in his lies.

Constant denials,

As tears fill your eyes.

All you want is to believe,

You’ll never let him see.

You’ve been taught to deceive,

Lock it up, toss the key.

You can question, wonder why,

But you know it wouldn’t matter.

You can say he is just a guy,

And that he’ll be better.

Yet as your tossing and turning,

Images fill your mind.

Every touch, every kiss burning,

Till to happiness you are blind.

You feel it’s you that doesn’t belong,

As joy fades from memory.

He tells you that it’s all wrong,

Yet you can’t let things be.

You’ll obsess about it for awhile,

Then the truth finally hits you.

No long can u hide in denial,

One heart can’t love two.

The choice was yours to make,

Yet you knew you were too late.

Now her heart he is free to take,

You left it up to fate.
