TEARS ON MY PILLOW

Love at first sight
Overwhelmed, captivated
Moved in too fast
Should have known, should have waited.

No second thoughts
No rhyme or good reason
Took off my clothes
So  cold, I was freezing.

Should have been cautious 
Too soon it began
Had I…. had known
Would have left, would have ran.

Flattered and charmed
Romance galore
Like in a movie
I begged you for more.

A wandering eye
When it rained, yes it poured
Before I knew it
You were gone, out the door.

Tears on my pillow
A broken, shattered heart
Wish I had known
Should have known from the start.

Seeking money and fame
Power and means
You took what you wanted
Had a plan, had a scheme.
