Summer Of Twenty-Two

Same time last summer 

Why was it a bummer 

You had a deep need

That I could never feed.

–

When you said goodbye

Rivers of tears I cried

When I realized you didn’t care

I relearned that life isn’t fair.

–

I put it all on the table 

But your love was a fable

Painfully knowing all too late 

That to you I wasn’t great.

–

The passions we shared

Were beyond compare

Yet you took another lover

Your lies were uncovered. 

–

Not my lover not my friend 

Didn’t have my back in the end

It’d be easy to hope for hell 

But in the end I wish you well.
