I Heard You

I heard you say.
I heard you laugh.
I watched you look away.
I watched you take a bath.
Thinking I was asleep.
I heard you creep.
Found you in the arms of another man.
Nothing can erase the damage that you've done.

I heard you say.
I heard you swear.
Lovingly you kissed me & walked away.
Slowly you lovingly stole my heart away.
Knowing I was yours you took advantage of me.
Promising me that you'd never hurt me.

I heard you on the phone.
I heard him on the other line.
Thinking everything would be okay.
I destroyed every photograph--set every lie of fire.
What you did will never fly by me.
I don't forgive & forget.
