I am a mental man,
The feelings are so true,
I am a genuine man,
Sentimental man.
I had cried like children,
In sheer repentance,
Repentance of exposing,
Exposing my love to him.
For he was less of a friend,
More of an obsessive flirt,
He enticed her and I lost,
I lost a lot of my sanity.
I am a motional man,
The gait is a slightly limpy,
I am a touchy man,
Emotional man.
I had pent up my tears,
The evening was blue,
Took a purple shade my ears,
Reasons to live were so few.
I was not possessive,
But just highly insecure,
Because leave me she may,
I don't want her to regret her choice.
For I had loved her,
More as a father,
And less like a lover,
A guilt that will stay forever.
Because it's her name,
Her name is tattooed,
Even in this thought,
And onto my heart.
