RERUN...
I once thought I was falling apart.
Gentle ways gave me a jump start.
You held me close; it all begun.
An amazing tale of love once spun.
Loved you better than I had anyone.
You swore you weren't another rerun.
You were so much bigger than life.
You insisted I was your forever wife.
I know you were never being true.
You devised your last wicked rue.
A way to have your cake; gobble it all.
Unable to hear the impending squall.
Triangle of women, two others & me.
Deceitfulness erased my plans to flee.
I needed to believe your lying spree.
You uprooted the greatest of my tree.
It once was the source of my pride.
When truth and treachery did collide.
The roots I thought I buried deep.
Left in a pile; now a sloppy heap.
You contrived the plan so it'd die
A death contrived from a fatidic lie.
