The Imposter
Who is this imposter and what have you done
With the man that I love? We had only begun
to share all the love that I thought was so true...
But then you were gone, never saying we're through.
You can't be my lover, you can't be my friend.
He'd never have done this, He'd never pretend
to care about someone and then walk away,
with no backward glance and nothing to say.
This is his body, those are his eyes
But who's really in there? It's such a surprise
to find out the person you thought was your own
Was someone who soon would pack up and be gone.
With no explanation and nary a tear,
You left like a thief in the night: disappeared.
I dont understand why it ended like this.
There were no goodbyes, not even a kiss.
You knew that I loved you, but you didn't care.
You had other plans and I wasn't aware
that you were unhappy and wanted to leave.
I still hate to think I could be that naive.
You're leaving me here with a future so bleak,
I do hope you find what it is that you seek.
Someday you'll look back and remember this day.
And you'll wonder how things would have been if you'd stayed.
By then it won't matter, for I'll have moved on.
You know how I feel about being alone.
Wherever you go I hope you will be free,
and realize no one has loved you like me.
