Jealousy

By Wren

Don't say you didn't see me
I know you turned to look
She had her arms around you
That dirty little crook
I saw the way you looked at her
The feelings in your eyes
Only fools leave their souls unlocked
And accept all the lies
I won't fall for this anymore
I'm leaving you cold turkey
You come home tonight
My things are packed
You look confused
I tell you what I saw
And you say that's not the truth
Oh right, like she's your cousin
You were showing her around!
You know I'm not that stupid
I won't believe petty excuses
A full blown lie won't save you now
You need some better sources
Then your aunt walks in..
Now that's a different story.
