I Cut My foot

[font=Verdana]Pictures in a broken glass
Hearts full of rain
Wonder if this broken heart will ever love again
Looking in the mirror
And all I see is scars
Trying to find freedom, but all I find is bars
Introduced you to my mother who had her reservations
Brought you around my friends that had their own speculations
I put you on a pedestal higher than Jacks bean stalk
Now it's killing me that I have to walk
You promised summer rains and slow dances
Makeup sex and second chances
You told me that everything I felt was the same for you
So why did I come home to find her in bed with you
Silken hair and pouty lips
tattooed down with colored tips
Skin the color of toffee
And all you could say was get off me
She goes flying I go crying and you look at me confused
Then I see the ring on HER finger so I'm the one being used
I can't hit her I can't hate you though I think that I should try
I back out of my bedroom wishing this all was just a lie
Then I cut my foot on the broken glass that my heart was encased in
I ignore the pain and the blood and walk away but you never come chasin
You hold Her and console HER and tell her you are sorry
Of course our child is not yours we can even go to Maury
Son now our miracle baby is no longer yours to claim
Don't worry with his care and I will change his last name
I walk away swallowing a oil that's more bitter than any other
You just go on and live your life and I'm left a single mother
I still cry some days when my son asks about you
I just tell him that you love him and I hope that it's true
A few years come and go and you want back in our life
You are tired of being with her even though she is your wife
In my desperation I almost consider
Then I pot something on the floor that shines like glitter
It's that piece of glass I cut my foot on that once caused me to bleed
It lets me know our path is done and you I no longer need
So I decline and then I pray did I make the right decision
You tuck your tail and go away then in walks one with precision
He didn't come with bulging muscles and didn't seem like a king
But in two years he showed me that to him I'm everything
Now that little shard of glass has finally disappeared from my life
I will enjoy my husband
While you're divorcing your wife
