Love-5 years in the Making

A hint of hope and lots of trust
Go into this relationship
But the relationship is built on lust
And not the love originally from it

She devotes her time day and night
while he sneaks around with a girl of his own
Tensions are high and soon there's a fight
But the boy won't even speak to her over the phone

Following her gut she asks him if they're okay?
He tells her that he never felt the same
She knew that now he is getting his way
and she gets to deal with his and her pain

The girl is fine until one evening
She looks on social media
Her love of five years was really cheating
and she starts to question memories

She resorts to her friends, who's hate begins to grow
and soon she is stuck making a brave decision
she messaged that young boy wanting him to know
That their friendship is out of consideration


Now she writes slowly about how she feels
Jealously burns, but freedom sets in
Though pain slithers in like electric eels
She knows she'll be better far away from him.
