Deadly Deception
"Deadly Deception"
hearts hurting; hanging on mantle
in pieces of shattered romance
wandering eyes; tempted by "greener grass"
my lonely nights fathom in a phantom dance.
in Life and in Love; each moment a choice
with stars in my eyes, I still hear your false voice.
words cut so deep like a jagged knife
"I just fell out of love with you"
though I'll keep you in my memories
our love was a lie and untrue.
absorbing verbal bruises
adultery always accuses.
emotions surge raw as I empty my pain
"second chances" were never my nitche'
meet a woman who wants to move on with her life
others label me as a stone *itch.
you were the deceiver
who fooled this believer.
my philosophy is simple to understand
yet larger than "forgive and forget"
if you don't know what you have when you have it
you will live your whole life with regret.
love is a gift from God the Creator
so I will forgive you
cause I'm a lover ... not a hater.
*For Delilah's Adultery..forgive or not frgive..
