My place has already been taken …

I looked into you eyes
And searched for the hidden lies
I heard people say
It’s a game you play

Friends had warned me
They said truth I could not see
I was too much into you
To differ lie from what is true

As time moved on
All my doubts were gone
I lay my trust in you
And I gave my life too

At times I could feel the space
I felt fear staring at my face
But then I thought I was paranoid
Just wanting to fill up the void

I followed the path you had shown
I left behind all I had known
Walking away all alone
Little knowing my life was torn

For you I made my family cry
For you I was ready to die
I broke peoples heart
I tore relationships apart

At time I felt I was wrong
But with you I felt I did belong
Though you weren’t always there
Though you loved me you did swear

There were things that didn’t fit
There times when you couldn’t justify your bit
But I just let things go
I tired and let my mind ignore

I ignored you not coming home at night
I ignored your small talks and fights
I tried my best for you not to complain
I always had a smile even though I was in pain

As I walked past people who spoke behind my back
They discussed things I never had or did lack
They looked down upon me
For I was blind to all that I could see
They mocked at my fortune
And sang me off as a broken tune
They laughed at my misery
They gossiped of my tragedy

I wanted to go and hide
Behind closed door I broke down and cried
Then I heard the miffed voices
I realized I was a prey to my own choices
As I lay shattered and broken
I knew my place had already been taken
