Why are you here?
Do you recall that evening?
The light from the moon was dazzling.
It was bright.
We were both at the beach.
We walked to the park.
A fresh green lawn was just like our carpet.
We treated each other as if we were indoors.
I assumed it was all real.
I believed it was true love.
Little did I know, your heart was elsewhere.
I felt the warmth of your hands and embraces.
I got duped.
I was blown away by love.
I favored you, but you played me.
You chewed me like a piece of chewing gum.
After the sweetness of the sugar.
You threw me away.
I wish I knew what you came for.
Why did you get back to me?
Don't try to sweet-talk me.
I'm done,
In fact, we are done.
I have to go.
