you were my everything,
until he came along,
and then your smile
danced in his eyes
instead of mine.
i became the third wheel
with no explicit purpose.
just some insurance
for you to fall back on
when things didn't go your way.
nothing more.
just a puppet,
whose strings you still manipulated,
blindly,
but with a smile
that thawed my heart
every time.
