Scorned

As I listened to the words
The same old hurt carried me away
How foolish I was
To believe the things you said
I did so much
Little things each day
While you mocked me with another
Secret words you shared with her
A mockery of all I stood for
Stole my trust, my affection
I believed everything would be okay
Why lie?
What did you hope to gain?
Doesn’t matter now
I stand alone, my fate it seems
Deserving of a friend, a man
And so much more
The wall is up now
Higher, stronger
Shut tight against the world
Was it worth it?
I’ll never know
Thank you
For the closing of a door
Lesson learned
