Nineteen,
I was nineteen.

You offered steaks at your place,  
You said your family would be there.

I tried saying my goodbyes.  
With the smirk on your face and the shadow outside the rv window I should have known I was set up by my so called lover..
Once my friend showed up to my "lovers" house he told her where I was.  
As I ran to her car there he was,  
calling me a slut,
