A Lover's Anthem

by Nick - Virgo

Betrayed my faith
betrayed myself
should've thought to wait
should've stopped myself

Thought I had it all
and when it seemed colder
never let me fall
was my crying shoulder

Picked me up
(and laid me down)
with gentlest touch
but soured the ground

Through devious eyes
ripped it all apart
turned those years to lies
and broke my heart

Now wants back in
but from my lips to God's ears
I'll not repeat that sin
I'll shed no more tears

So take your lies
and those things you say
and your devious eyes
and go away

Reason for writing:

    For a friend, For all
