Gave him everything I had, stripped myself of all protections, only to realize in the end, there was really never any connection.
He never knew who I was, never bothered to drink my blood; I put him on a pedestal, he couldn’t handle my emotional floods.
He couldn’t feel my sexy swagger, threw away the family jewels, He thinks it’s easy to replace me, he proved that youth is wasted on fools.
He had the keys to my heart, could mold and shape whatever, he chose to walk away blindly, never realizing the depths of his treasure.
Chasing ghosts of a new day, promises of peace and tranquility, he had everything in his hands, never learning the lesson of humility.
Arrogance prevailed, it’s best to run while you have the chance; don’t look back at the mess you made, leaving your woman for another man to enhance.
He thinks I’m all used up, no longer any desire for me, he wasn’t willing to tap what I had left; not understanding untapped love will make you scream.
Move on with your life, brand new flexing and strut-tin your stuff, tomorrow will bring happiness for me, I am finally over you, and I’ve finally had enough!

The down and dirty reality, it’s time to get really mad, he left you because he was sick of you, never once did he act sad! So tired of the aloneness, the quiet empty house, can’t eat, can’t sleep, so frustrated, all because of an ungrateful spouse!

It’s a full moon baby, are you feeling me, shining so bright in the darkness, hanging over what used to be. They call it the harvest moon, all gold and round and bright; we made passionate love in the pool, kissing and hugging surrounded by the yellow moonlight. Naked and…
