CAUGHT BETWEEN

I wait with such hopeful eyes

Oh how it had been too long

Since I'd reveled in her lies

And sang her shifty song

It is then I feet the final tug

Pull the last splinter from my heart

It comes to me as a warm and gentle hug

As I am told that she's forgotten her part

And I realize then

She never even cared

A fact so sad when

My love I always shared

All others I held her above

Even when the sharing hurt

But this is delivered with love

This message of her desert

Truth, I know, would never be so wrong

To leave her fold for something temporary

And it has been far too long

But the truth is, moving on is scary
