Where were you
When I got hurt for your sake,
When I was mistreated in your name,
When I laid my heart to you,
When I gave up my soul to please you?
Where were you
When they pretended to be you,
When they hid behind your name,
When they stole away my pride, claiming it was you,
When they beat me up and faked apologies,
When they cheated on me and with me?
Where were you, damn it,
When they convinced me chocolates and flowers were you
When I love you fooled me time and again
When I was rejected and ridiculed
When I was left to raise my kids alone
When my heart broke into pieces?
Ok, fine, I’ll forgive you.
If you tell me who you really are
If you avail yourself physically.
