__________by Di-Di

You told me I was beautiful, Black and Italian, didn't look like I was from "herre"
You talked with a country lingo, sayin' "right thurr"
East coast chick, midwest girl
First time meeting made my head swirl

Your kiss was so tender, your touch I craved
I was a good girl, for you, I always behaved
2 different worlds, they finally collide
Your words so hurtful, many lies implied

I never did anything to make you think that
But here you go, "I caught you dead in your tracks"
This whole relationship was too new to me
I guess I never knew how hard it would be

You blamed me for things I never had done
I'm still so hurt, the damage can't be undone
I accepted your apologies again and again
I loved you so much, I told you I'd never sin

The shit continued, so I had to break out
I guess you didn't care what our love was about
And now I'm without
I lie about
Think about
Talk about
Write about...
You

Even though I'm from a place you know nothing about
Does not mean I'm flagrant enough to go that route
Just because I'm from NY does not mean I've done everything
You act like life there is just sex and bling-bling

But now I digress..

Life without you I can't bear
I can't believe it's been nearly a year
I just really want you to take care
No, that's a lie; I want you here

Nothing about me was fake, the love was real.
I still can't explain how you made me feel
My first love, my true love
Come back and stop actin' like that.
