Once bitten, more times shy!!

Once bitten, more times shy!!

After all this time, you still lay blame elsewhere

You cannot accept that, both not one

Were responsible for this ending

For all that was said and done

How could you still not realize

That it was not just me alone

How could you not see with your own eyes?

The damage you also caused

You plead blatant innocence

You have a total disregard

For the lives you ruined

The lives you tore apart

The pain you caused, by leaving

The emptiness you left behind in my heart

Which will never again be filled

but will remain barren and desolate

you walk around from day to day

that smug expression still fills your face

you think you are guilt free,

yet you still see fit to lay blame at my door?????

You always judged so harshly

If words were not spoken that you wanted to hear

You would not listen

My feelings never counted for much in your eyes

If actions were not of your bidding

You would not act

You would instead turn a blind eye

To those around you and most importantly to me your wife

A title I had not for a long time felt belonged to me

Not in any sense of the word

Only when it suited you

Selectively loved is how I constantly felt

That July morning you ripped my life to shreds

Still plays in my mind

The destructive words that were said

By the two of us, not just one!

And yet after all this time you still fail to see

Still fail to comprehend that it was not I alone

That ended this so called love

A love that I now realize I should never have felt

Hindsight is a wonderful thing isn’t it?

Now I know better to guard my heart and soul

From the next man’s prying eyes and thieving words

Never again will I be a fooled
