Broken Hearts and Pride

Nothing can fill the emptiness
that you’ve created in my heart,
you took time to fill it with love
and just minutes to tear it apart.

Why did you waste your time
playing at love with me,
when you knew that our love
wasn’t meant to be.

I still find it hard to believe
how you were so two faced.
Whilst you were playing me,
I’d already been replaced.

Not only did you break my heart,
my pride has taken a fall.
When life’s cycle comes to bite you,
hearts and pride, you’ll recall.
