I long to be freed

You absence was so sudden
So brutal, so cold
I hungered for your attentions
But then I was told

You were using me to get to her
Such a cowardly thing to do
And now my heart is ruined
I cannot start anew

Your selfish lust was all consuming
Powered by desire
You led me on for all that time
I never thought of you a liar

Those innocent eyes were simply a mask
Smothering the greedy plans
That adorable boyish smile
Cover for a self-centred man

Now I struggle to face you again
But it was you that did the deed
I have to stop myself from loving you
From your grasp I long to be freed.
