I saw you today with your new wife on the side
And your new daughter I guess she looks about five.
Did you upgrade from the life you threw aside
And the wife and three kids you left behind?
Have you finally found your happiness?
Are you enjoying the path you've chosen?
I truly hope that you are.
I'd hate to think that you made me hurt and bleed
for absolutely nothing.
But, know that for each laugh you've gained since we last met
They were paid for with each tear that I had shed asking myself why was I not enough?
Why am I not the daughter my father can love?
Am I not worth fighting for?
Am I not worth protecting?
All these questions keep projecting and formulating in my mind.
As I look for these answers wherever I can
Yet, the one man that can doesn't care,
Doesn't give a ****.
You promised to love me,
YOU promised to walk out my future with me.
Talks of seeing my graduation and giving my hand in marriage.
Were these all lies and falsehoods?
Was that my first real life lesson that all men are liars and crooks?
That may not have been your purpose or intention,
but you can bet I won't let another man leave me or treat me like **** again.
Thanks again for the life lesson.
