The Player
An original poem by Aimee Weber

I can't believe you did it
I never expected it from you
I guess I thought you were super-human
but I found out that's not true.

You said you loved another
and that I could accept,
but the day our union ended
is a day I won't forget.

It was a perfect Sunday
sunny, bright and blue,
until you said 'it's over'
-it paled to a dark hue.

I believed you meant it,
when you said we'd still be friends,
but moments after it was over
you had a new girlfriend.

I can't believe you did it.
I never expected it from you.
I guess I thought you were super-human,
but I found out that's not true.

The battle lines are drawn
and the struggle shall ensue.
My understanding heart is gone,
and now it's time I got over you.

I thought that you were better,
than all those other guys.
But now you're exactly like them
with your fickle natured lies.

I realize my mistake
in dating my best friend.
I suppose I always knew
I'd get burned in the end.

Don't believe I hate you,
'cause you know it isn't true.
I just can't believe you played me.
I never expected it from you.
