I Was Never the Girl For You...Forgiveness Was Never 'My Thing'

I was never the girl for you—
Sorry,
I just didn’t understand why you would think I’d still be yours after hearing her flirtatious laugh, seeing your shining, green eyes,
After seeing the way you held her waist,
I was sick—
I never understood how you thought I could be faithful after seeing that.
Do you like putting on shows? In a crowded, dimly lit hall where every piranha could gobble up every ounce of gossip they can get their slimy hands on--
Forgiveness really was never my thing.
