We’ve taken sides, you and I,
and in your eyes I don’t exist,
But time hasn’t healed these crescent wounds,
and all thoughts of you persist.

The trust we had now lays in ruins,
the shards cut through my feet,
With every step I’m anguished more,
but I simply can’t retreat.

I let my heart run away with you,
no limitation to my trust,
Now every time I let that love return,
it’s like looking through the dust.

I’ve been abandoned by my sworn-protector,
a woman who had my back,
It didn’t take much for you to lie,
and commit to your attack.

I begged you for some reason,
to think of a decade at its peak,
You wouldn’t even meet my eye,
and you turned the other cheek.

The times you held me in your arms,
our kisses seemed so real,
Then later you changed your loyalty,
it was my dignity you did steel.

You set aside so easily,
all our plans and deepest talks,
Like pouring water and watching vanish,
a child’s sidewalk chalks.
