RELATIONSHIPS: LOVE, HEARTACHE, AND BETRAYAL

GREEN MONSTER

You told me everything will be all right
While you held me close in your arms so tight
Your lack of respect for me hurt so much
I am sure going to miss your gentle touch
I wish I could kiss you one more time
See your steel blue eyes staring into mine
I always thought of you as handsome and kind
I guess I know now why they say love is blind.
Little did I know what lurked inside
When I read your message I almost died
All I wanted was to tell you how I felt
Everything I wrote was quite heartfelt
That ol' green monster got a hold of me
It was because I cared, why can't you see
I still cannot believe you are forever gone
Without you, my friend, how can I carry on
What I would give to hold you once more
Darlin, it's you and only you I adore
Please don't throw us away because I screwed up
I know I'm the cause of you blowing up
I love you dear friend--I'm sorry as can be
Won't you reconsider being friends with me
