Traitors Heart

Our hearts are vessels for deceit
Living in hope they don’t secrete
To spill our deepest darkest deeds
To expose our ever hungry needs

When the one we love is with another
And the one we have, our child’s mother
How can we forget feelings found
When life already finds us tightly bound

How do we live with this truth denied
Denying all that we desire inside
When we hunger for just one feast
But meal denied to this caged beast

When every day this mind’s consumed
And each night these thoughts exhumed
When she slumbers at my side
But the feel of you still resides

Can there be a greater sin
Than the betrayal of next of kin
But no matter of my guilt
I keep on loving at full tilt



“She's got a heart of gold, she'd never let me down
But you're the one that always turns me on
You keep me comin' 'round”
Bryan Adams, Run to you
