I Told Her

I always treated her right I even taught her how to fight, And I taught her to stand toe to toe She then hit me with a low blow. I told her that I never did lie As I looked her strait in the eye, And I truly believed no one would lie to me Then she did constantly. I told her I kept my promises and my word Whenever it is ever spoken or heard, A promise to me is an oath paid Then she broke every promise she made. I told her that I never cheated Onto any partners heart I never mistreated, Then in her I truly believed Then on me she cheated and deceived I told her that I never stole or robbed From thievery never created one tear sobbed, I told her thievery could destroy the very soul Then from me she stole. I told her I never smoked, took drugs or drank alcohol To those addictions I would never stumble or fall, Then when my truths she wanted to debunk She got high and also drunk. I told her that I worship the Lord Jesus Christ Because of my pleas she went with me to church twice, She never ever went again Because, she enjoyed sin. I told her she did me harmful and wrong But, I didn't hate her for that long, I forgave her, as being a forgiving Christian and wise Then about me she made up stories and told lies. I never told her goodby or even farewell As in depression and into sadness I fell, I still remember the day that she went away And for her, I still do pray. Randy L McClave
