Your love is like an arrow

Laced with poison

At first it feels shallow

Then it pierces deeper

I thought we were happy

I thought we had something

Now it’s just a memory

Of nice times we used to have

I remember when you hit me

For the first time, I cried

Then you hugged me and set me free

But I was trapped in my own mind

I should have left sooner

But your grip tightened on me

And then I saw you with her

That’s what broke our ties

I packed my things away

While you were at the pub

Things no longer seemed grey

And I ran
