You treated me badly, leaving scars on my hands
You promised me things you hadn’t the right to
You let me love, hate you and told me we’re through
You made plans time and again and never showed
You tried to appease me but your excuses never slowed
You made me laugh and once upon a time loved me
You were smart and funny, and made me feel so free
You once treated me well and cared and fussed all the time
You made me think that you were all mine
You tricked my mind into believing so many things
You twist, turn and look down at your rings
You once were someone else, so full of grace
You stare and make that grimace, that face
I hear a sound and feel arms from behind encircling me
Pulling my mind out of my reprieve, hands softly touching me
Turning away from the mirror, my mind slowing down
A kiss placed upon my lips, I forget how to frown
Come back to bed, a whisper placed at my ear
I leave my reflection and return to the place where I feel no fear.
