I need your love
I need your embrace
come back
come back
come back
I see you
I see your face
I see your loving arms I ache to hold
I see them wrapped around her
I cringe
Her
why her
why not someone else
You left me for her
I cringe
Save me a shred
a morsel of dignity
Please spare me from the anguish
I seek to satisfy
I feel this life
growing within me
Half mine, half yours
A part of you
existing forever inside
always there to remind me
of you
of her
No matter how much I cry
It doesn't matter what I think
Nothing changes.
You are still with her
I am still alone
Laden with an ironic reminder of our passion
A grim symbol, yet so humbling
I thank you for it
I damn you for it
I cringe
