No Physical Cheating

I am sorry if you had to keep turning to him
Instead of it being me. I know I have not been
The best in giving you all of the attention and
Love that you always deserve, full to the brim,
But what is it about him? Are his hands clean?
Does he protect your heart? He will understand

You better than I could ever do. I know that you
Are too good of a woman to physically cheat on
Me, but the emotional pain of it all is way worse.
Maybe I did not do enough to deserve you. I knew
That this was not going to work. He should fawn
Over you like he’s your number one fan. A verse

And many words that could describe his love for
You more than I could ever express. Every knot
Should be loosening not becoming tighter like
A noose around your neck. He opens every door
While I just kept you standing in the same spot
With tears running down your face. A strike

Of lightening. No one ever deserves that kind
Of pain. You deserve every smile and embrace
Because a woman like you should get what
You always give. I hope that he will remind
You every day how special you are. Your face
Should be filled with light like an angel and shut

Out the darkness like what I brought to your life.
You deserve to be someone’s center and wife.
