TRYING TO UNDERSTAND
Soothing voice enchant my mind
Foolishly in love oh so blind
Guided by others head over heels
Remembering how true love feels
Stolen moments with a price to pay
Words of love that ultimately betray
On a mission you sought me out
Removing my fears dissolving my doubt
Moving so fast no time to think
Poisoned by the chalice from which you drink
From phone to reality in the blink of an eye
Blissfully unaware it was no more than a lie
Unable to see blind to the fact
Your feelings you soon would retract
The precious moment’s morning or night
Holding you close felt so right
Making love it felt like a dream
The perfect match a winning team
So in tune as if we were meant to be
How true love blinds those that would see
Family friends seemingly on side
Encouraging you to walk tall with pride
Making plans sorting things out
Full of purpose no room for doubt
Key to the house space inside
Whatever you needed ready to oblige
Words of comfort he’ll hurt you no more
So sure that this time it was forever more
Confiding in me there by your side
Arm in arm walking with pride
Defending your honor easing your pain
Unable to see it was all in vain
Arranging to meet then out of the blue
Nothing but silence no word from you
Hours go by no call or text
Beside myself what to do next
Eventually get through but all was not fine
You were pulling away, no longer mine
Excuses flowed it’s not you it’s me
A veiled expression for wanting to be free
The sudden change caught unaware
Foolishly tricked thinking you care
Destroyed in an instance my faith in life
Put to the sword it cuts like a knife
Finding it hard trying to understand
Was it a game extremely we’ll planned
Was it a fling was I being used
Of all these crimes you stand accused
Heartbroken and weary you walked away
Followed by those I believed would back me all the way
Alone and empty with my head in my hand
Aching inside still trying to understand
