Love is like a stray dog. Everywhere you go there are people wanting it, looking for it, or wishing they had it back.

Don't look at me
With those brown eyes
Don't try to stop me
I found out you lied
Don't call me baby
Don't say please
I'm tired of all of this
Believe me
Don't say that you're sorry
Don't apologize
I should have known
From the way you spoke
That something wasn't right
Don't just sit there
With a blank stare
Didn't you think I'd know?
Don't tell me you didn't cheat
Don't beg me not to go
Don't tell me it was all her
Don't tell me you were seduced
Cause I know that the biggest mistake
I ever made was you

The author's comments:
Cheating isn't cool. If you like someone enough to date them, then you should only date them. Take care of them, cherish them. Don't cheat. Because as a wise lady once said, "Treat others like they should treat you, and be wary what you do, for everything that's done, comes back to you times 2."
Xoxo,
Kaylee
