You came to me again tonight Creeping silently into my dreams Black tears streaked my cheeks Things aren't always what they seem You spoke all the right words Knew just how to hold my hand Treated me like a woman should be You were a prince from distant lands I gave my all to keep you true You only had to speak my name With the whispered words of love How was I to know it was just a game? You used me like a childs toy Then tossed me carelessly aside My heart shattered with pain so great I thought for sure I was going to die People aren't objects meant for your pleasure Someday soon this lesson I hope you learn Put away your book of matches Before you see how it feels to get burned Too late for you, I've seen your new conquest You've said she's the woman of your dreams But she plays the same game you did Things aren't always what they seem. With a little piece of tomorrow, You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye. Because today won't last forever, And the past will only make you cry. |

Nice twist at the end of this! You might say it's poetic justice! To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

This one made me sad to think of myself in that same situation once a long time ago. Even if revenge is sweet, it feels awful anyway... |

Oh wow... I guess when I was writing this, I didn't even think of revenge..Hmm.. It's odd how everyone sees something different in the written words... Jon - Thankyou Marge - I'm glad you enjoyed them.. Kcsgrandma - That's true.. thankyou. Debbie - bittersweet and honest.. thankyou. With a little piece of tomorrow, You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye. Because today won't last forever, And the past will only make you cry. |
