Replacement Love

You needed me

A hand to hold

A shoulder to lean on

A soul to guide you

Arms to hold you

I was your perfect release

An exception to the rule

When you felt unloved

I was there

To fill the void

I took up the missing moments

Moments once spent with her

Shedding our secrets

Bearing our souls

I never knew myself so well

As I did with you

But slowly she creeped

Jealousy sparked into action

Hurried pace back into your heart

Slow movements into your bed

Patiently I waited

Quietly I watched

You said that things were better

She changed .. a new start

In my darkness I resigned

Picking up my shattered heart

Piece by piece

You asked me for my friendship

I gave you my hate

Pieces bathed in blood

I could not put back together again
