A Chapter Named C

Charlie

I confide my past in you
You say I ruined your mood

I'm afraid of a repeat
You claim my fear obsolete

I beg for your fidelity
You only give anxiety

I recite the pattern on record
You seem to think the lines are blurred

I fall apart in your arms
You go see her anyhow

I've been cheated and lied to
You couldn't promise you won't do it too

I'm afraid of not being heard
You didn't say a word
