Just This Once

The struggle I deal with in trying not to wish ill on someone who hurt me very deeply.

Maybe she'll forgive

Maybe let it slide

That time that I ignored you

or gave you the evil eye

Maybe she'll overlook

Those words that shook

You

To your very core

That night you asked me for more

When you knew that you were creepin'

Knew that you were sleepin'

With those who you chose

To make lovers for a weekend

Same time you ask of mine

You ask all of my skin

To bring a light to this world

That's born of lyin' and sin

So just this once

I hope she let's me get away

With the Vengeful thoughts

That I may just entertain

I really do hope

That she doesn't make even

The night that I flipped out

When I learned that you were cheatin'

When you were there restin'

Protected by your parents

Who had no idea

That you even had a girlfriend

Or make that girlfriends

Online or in person

All of us, oblivious

Swear, you're not even human

So maybe, just maybe

She'll let me get away

With the scene that I made

When I threw out the gifts that you gave

And it may just be possible

Could be a small chance

That she missed the ring

That flew from my fingers into the sand

You said that you were for me

Said that you adored me

Wanted my love only

No one would be above me

Now I'm all alone

In shambles we called home

With a son who called you daddy

And dials you on my phone

I have faith in destiny

Karma don't miss a beat

But just this once

I hope she aims at you and not me
