How Could You?

By: Jeff Gogel

How could you do this to me?
I ask myself, why?
What did I do to deserve
all these things that you deny?

My heart trembles and quivers,
my eyes water and tear.
I thought you were perfect,
I always wanted you near.

The thought of you was beautiful,
it always made me so happy.
Now I think of you as mean,
so cruel, and wickedly nappy.

What was going through your mind,
when you went through with your betrayal?
Did you think I would find out?
Or did you think I would fail?

So many questions:
When, who, what, why, and where?
There's too many to ask,
it's like you never even care.

How could you do this to me?
I feel I've been stabbed in the heart.
Each time it beats,
we fall farther apart.
