Guess what?
You played your part so well,
In casting a somber spell.

Whenever we stood side by side,
You'd proclaim her superior with pride,
As if your aim was to cast me aside.

Guess what?
If only honesty you'd shown,
Whether you wanted to be on your own,
But instead, you reveled in making me groan,
Pointing out flaws like a heart made of stone.

I found myself doubting in the mirror's reflection,
Eyes filled with tears, a self-inflicted dejection.

You continued to spin your web of lies,
Claiming you'd die for me under darkened skies.

You spoke of eternity, but it was fleeting,
Leaving me with a heartache, a cruel mistreating.

Guess what?
You excelled at making me feel so small,
But now, I rise above it all.
