Another, But Me
You forsake me for another
And leave me cold and lonely.
You torture me with your eyes,
They greet me yet they ignore me.
You taunt me with your smile,
It sends comfort but mocks me.
You tease me with your words.
They belong in a symphony,
But leave me with aching ears
For your words don't reach me.
You afflict me with a pain
And rejected my heart will be.
I am walled from you.
From the outside looking in,
Another looks out at me
Engraving your zeal for him.
Now your hands push me away
And they gently take another.
Your mind erases my memory,
But creates a new, for another.
I am drawn by your enticement,
Yet forsake me for another.
