The Con Man

by Mary Lord DeGrood - Leo

You lied; you cheated
You stole my heart.
The 'I love yous' repeated
Tore me apart.

You loved me; you left me
And returned again.
To love me; to leave me
Again in this pain.

You have what you wanted
My heart; my soul.
My feelings you taunted
That was your goal.

You played a game
At my expense.
I haven't been the same
Not then; not since.
