Along the pebble stones I go
I creep carefully along the way,
Quietly cursing each and every step,
In fear of the noise giving me away.
In and out of many buildings I weave,
Just like the hunter does with its prey,
Here there are no exceptions.
Here it is just the same,
So my eyes continue to stay focused,
Just like any cat and mouse game
" hurry up ! A loud voice bellows, all aboard if ye do sail "
But I don't respond to the captains wishes,
I just hide like I am a runaway trying to escape jail
I cannot give away my presence
For then I would have failed.
I suddenly gasp as the one I followed
Now stands as still as can be,
" my darling, I have missed you " he says.
I cry because it's not me.
" Does she know " asks his companion
As they intimately kiss and hold each other tight,
" she won't find out till morning,we timed it just right "
His words opened a hole deep within me
And I cried as I watched them happily go,
But he seemed to have no memory of me,
Him who was my husband and her the heartless hoe.
" hurry up " the loud voice sternly bellows, " all aboard we be leaving now,
I hate you I cry, as they continue to flirt and laugh out loud ,
My betrayal of a husband and her that marriage breaking cow.
Back along the pebbles I now wander,
Still holding the betrayal note left on his pillow to me,
And hoping their ship sinks like the Titanic,
And they get lost out in sea.
Many hearts do get broken
And mine is riddled with pain
But I will always tread broken glass to get to you
I just wish you felt the same,
And had not run away with that woman
And caused me all this pain.
