I Can't Believe

All your words seem so empty
Lo faithless wraith, who hath stole my heart 
Your gilded tongue be stilled!
Your words hold poison's toxic sting
And steel so hard and cold
Lo!  Cut deep, cut swift
Cut me to the bone
Sever all ties to me
Forget the flicker of my love
And forgive me my faults
You sought to hold me in your arms
But kept me from your heart
Behind a walled barbed and high
You sheltered things you did not let me see
Left things unspoken and unshared
I gave you all i had
Let you into the darkness 
Let you lead me blindly
Your truth was false 
Though in shining eyes
I believed it real
Return, safe and warm to her arms
The one you want to hold
The one who you allowed in
Not me
You pledge your love eternal 
I thought forever had no end
But now you retreat on those words
And you have retreated to her bed
So adulterous heart be stilled
I shall have to learn not to live for you
To breathe for my own intent
So step off from me
Do not return
This is a mistake I shall not repeat
You have hurt me far too much
