She watched him play Toy with the girls’ emotions And she remembered All those days that she, too Believed all the twisted lies And there was an ache in her Spilling out from her heart Because she had so wanted All those lies to be true She'd loved him so deeply
She had assumed, erronously That he loved her back That things were different With her and him than others That she was special to him
But as she watched him Go through lover after lover She realized they all thought That they were special to him But none of them were
And as she watched him She knew that he was losing Because he didn't love And he'd forgotten how it felt To be honestly in love
~G.G. Marshall
