The Look He Gave Her
<p>I thought he liked me, he said that it's true,</p><p>So I gave him my body, my trust to him grew.</p><p>Like a child with a candle, believing he'd keep</p><p>The flame from my fingers, before I could weep.</p><p><br/></p><p>Now I sit with a secret I never did choose,</p><p>With friends who are laughing, who'll never refuse</p><p>To hold, without knowing, the knife and the truth,</p><p>The weight of the sorrow I carry, forsooth.</p><p><br/></p><p>They saw him with four girls, one there at his feet,</p><p>And the look that he gave her, a look of deceit.</p><p>Was he scared she would tell me? I want to believe</p><p>He was scared he'd get caught, not just trying to leave.</p><p><br/></p><p>'Cause if that's not true, then his feelings were fake,</p><p>He didn't like me, for his own selfish sake.</p><p>He painted his cousin the monster, the beast,</p><p>But monsters wear kind faces too, to say the least.</p><p><br/></p><p>And I fell for one, fell so trusting and hard,</p><p>Now I'm left with this mess, my emotions are scarred.</p><p>I sit here and choose between lies I can hold</p><p>And a truth that is painful, a story untold.</p><p><br/></p><p>Denial is warm, it allows me to keep</p><p>Your memory close, though the pain is still deep.</p><p>But denial's a cage that I build with my hands,</p><p>A prison of glass in imaginary lands.</p><p><br/></p><p>Why did you do this? Why make me believe</p><p>I was safe in your hands, just meaning to grieve?</p><p>I was dumb, I repeat, I was stupid and blind.</p><p>Too dumb, just a fool to be so unkind.</p><p><br/></p><p>But maybe I wasn't so stupid to love,</p><p>Just brave to see good in the stars up above.</p><p>And you were just cruel, the proof in the pain,</p><p>To show me my hope was all in vain.</p>
