You win
Not when I’m out and you’re in
You win
If I’m not successful without him.
Empty bed all night
He’s snuck out to meet you
Why should I fight?
Now I’ve got space for two.
Home from work
Your cheap cologne in the air
Frightened cause I don’t give a fuck
But your smell is my burden to bear.
Walking on eggshells
To pick up your calls
His eyes filled with fear
Especially when we are at the mall.
He’s leaving me
Your greatest achievement
But you’ll always only be
His second placement.
He said he loves you
He told me that too
How many others
Do you think he’s said that to?
He’s all yours
If he’s stupid enough to go
But please be cautious
He’ll do this to you also.
You win
But this wasn’t even a competition
You can have everything
Including his lying and cheating obsession.
KCO III.
