The Mistress

by @a-love-for-hatred

Tori sang it so well. . . I'm a Fire On The Side He comes to me for pleasure But sleeps next to her every night I don't know when I started caring Nor if I even should But one thing I do know now Is that I wouldn't leave him if I could I love the feel of his arms around me I love waking with his skin against mine How long before we're alone again? What can I do to pass the time? It's evil to be this, this hussy, this whore It's wrong to think he'd feel anything more I'm just his Fire On The Side, burning his soul But she has his heart, I, just this gaping hole.

This was written years ago yet still haunts me to this day. I ruined a friendship with someone who trusted me.
