It took me a while, but I need to process this feeling.
This hurt and disappointment, in me they are revealing.
One whom I loved and she betrayed my trust.
He made her laugh and was met with lust.

"They're just friends" I hoped it was true.
"You didn't want to join me" Is that my fault too?
I asked if you loved me and yet you grew distant.
I gave you a warning, but blocking you were resistant.

That night I found out, I wanted to cry.
I tried to stay strong, but I wanted to die.
Reading through that had made me nauseous.
Age means nothing so now I am cautious.

He was open with flirting, why didn't you leave?
You told him "sorry", you're a fool and naive.
And that girl who approached, oh there goes another.
"Jokingly flirting" but cheated on with the other.

You weren't open about us, so did I mean nothing?
He wanted a show, surely you gave him something.
He seek your attention, but to you I was "wrong".
Fighting insecurities I tried to stay strong.

Cheated on by a nerd, that I could not see.
I told you how I felt, yet you questioned me.
I try to remember that murder is a sin.
Yes I forgive you, but I won't be fooled again.
