if only he knew
that he
is not who he used to be
then he would know
why there is a
ME
the one that listens to her cries
catch them before
the streaks of mascara
dries
turns her frown
into a smile
when she's actually upset
because he does what he does best
and lets her down
unfortunately for him
she's gone
physically
she's still there
yet emotionally
i'm her new home
to move into
a vacant lot
ready to give her
build her her own
and allow her to have all i got
to give, and what i don't have
i'll find
because she's going to love me in the end
because of what he couldn't afford to give
time
its not my fault
i didn't push it to end
but what i did do
was become her confidant
and her friend
the part of the vows that he overlooked
when he
thought she was now his property
because of the wedding he paid for
and the rings he bought
damn fool
you let the best thing you ever had
get away
thank you
you damn fool
because you sent her my way
i can't wait
for the day the papers are finalized
keys returned
locks changed
because either she is on her way to me
or me to her
with her orignial last name
that 6 months from now
may just change again
but i learned from your mistakes
and i don't even know you
lol
damn fool
my happiness i owe you
b/c i know what your strengths were
and where you failed
where your lie
should've been a truth
and your heaven
was her hell
its ok
its alright
she knows where i am
she has a formal invite
no r.s.v.p.
needed to come see me
because i'm here waiting
to let her call you from my celly...
saying EX of mine
i made it safely
to the man that
WON'T
waste my time
