I can't find the words
It's ironic for my poetic soul
Words should come easy
But I've been rummaging around for them
Been looking everywhere
Highs and lows, past and future
Tell me the synonyms of the list I have here
Betrayal
Treachery
Tomfoolery
Stupidity
Naive
Gullibility
Deception
Perfidy
They all sound close but not quite the right one
I'm at loss here but was I really the one who lost
I thought it was my fault
That maybe I was too harsh
You kept me around to serve a purpose
How could you do it
You made me feel special
You prioritized me above all else
You treated me better than you treated her
And as it turns out
I was the other woman
Wasn't I ?
But you didn't feel towards me what I felt for you
You just made me believe that you do
Everything we did
Everything we were
Meant nothing to you
I was just the right person at the right time
For the mission you master-planned
I don't think you'll realize through your thick empty skull
That you lost me
The only right in your mistaken life
And you say
I'm the fool
Sure
