"I Didn't Mean To"
  by kell


Bumped into my ex-girlfriend again the other day,
This is getting old, maybe I should move away.
I’m sick and tired of trying to stay cool,
When my world is falling apart, I’m such a fool.

She invited me to a party that she was throwing,
I knew something would happen, the rain starting pouring.
Couldn’t turn down such a tempting invitation.
I had to dig deeper into this heart breaking investigation.

I showed up to the party looking all fly and fresh,
I had to make sure I was looking my absolute best.
I wanted her to see what she was missing,
Had to believe if I showed up in volumes, she would listen.

Even went as far as to bring a blind date,
I paid her to act as if she was my mate.
I wanted her to be extremely jealous of me.
The envy in her eyes is what I wanted to see.

As I entered the room her eyes met mine,
The sparkle in her eyes made her look so fine.
I had never seen her before look this good,
I would make everyone in the room leave if I could.

Walked up to her and introduced my date,
I saw the jealousy in her eyes, us being together was fate.
Asked my ex to join me in the corner of the room,
Sent my date to get drinks, something would pop off soon.

Our conversation seemed to flow so sweet,
Everything she said made my knees go weak.
When my date returned, I sent her outside,
To meet other people of a far more caring kind.

Everyone and everything seemed to disappear,
No one around, our love for each other was clear.
After a few drinks we were having so much fun,
Then a kiss on the lips sent my hormones on run.

Took it upstairs, didn’t think about the consequence,
Our actions proved fatal as a gun shot just missed.
We turned around to see her husband standing there,
With a gun in one hand and the most sadistic stare.

He pushed me out the way and drug her by the hair,
She was partly naked but you could tell he didn’t care.
Showed her a picture of their baby, in her eyes you could see,
That the mistake she had made wasn’t worth being with me.

Packed up his suitcase and their son’s clothes too,
The only thing she could say was, “I Didn’t Mean To”.
The clouds rolled in and the rain started to pour,
The scared look in her eyes, I couldn’t take no more.

He started smashing pictures and punching holes in the wall,
Every time she tried to stand she would fall.
No longer had the strength to stand up for herself,
A consequence worse than a dose of crystal meth.

As he walked out the door with the baby in hand,
He whispered to the baby, “mamas in love with another man”.
The baby started crying and then tried to wave goodbye,
The tears in my ex’s eyes, told the story of someone dying inside.

I ran up to her and put my arms around her waist,
She had no motion, but I was there just in case.
I knew she would need somebody just to be there,
To hold her and comfort her and show that they care.

How could one of the happiest days in my life,
Turn into a nightmare that ended in strife?
The dream that I wished for so vividly,
Somehow turned into a painful reality!
