Cheating Isn't Worth A Dime

By: precious t javalera

Traveling to a different city to have some fun,
Suddenly I’m now on the run.
Caught cheating,
Heart beating
Faster and sounds so loud.
If only I wasn’t hanging with the wrong crowd,
I have no one to blame.
I messed up; things will never be the same.
I cheated on a good man,
That never was my plan.
How I wish to go back in time,
Cheating is not even worth a dime.
What a bad person I am, this isn’t even me.
I was blind for a minute, you see.
I was curious,
I see my man looking so sad and furious.
I had a good man, but not for long,
I guess he deserves better,
someone who won't do him wrong.
We would have had a good life,
I messed up, so now it’s gone;
my man slit his wrist with a knife.
So now he's dead,
Died in his one little bed.
How I wish to go way back in time,
Cheating isn’t a worth a dime.
How I miss my love,
I bet he’s happy right now, way up above.
What am I thinking? I shouldn’t be here.
Living? I have so much more fear.
I don’t want to live without my man,
I shall kill myself, now that’s my plan.
WAIT! Before I go,
Let this be to show
How sorry I am for cheating on my man.
This never was my plan.
And before I go, don’t think nothing of me,
He was a good man you see…
I was blind for a minute.
So that's the way it is,
things will never be the same,
And I only have myself to blame.
