Committed To Not Committing.

Infidelity runs deep in my blood

Something I can’t escape

The men in my family have masks and we wear a different one every day

We all live a lie that keeps our wives and the women of our lives at bay

The elaborate gift giving

Is a shield We used to protect ourselves from the truth

Truth is that we never learn how to love

Like Tina said” what’s love got to do with it”

I was never in love

While we were cuddled in his bed

My body dreads rolling over and seeing your face in the morning

Wishing you were the hot girl at my job instead

Telling you “I am with the guys”

When we both know that’s a lie

And I am knee-deep inside the insides

Of the woman that lives down the street

And these actions I will repeat over the next month year and week

But one thing is true you are too weak to leave me

And I’m too lazy to leave you

I am committed to not committing to you

But if you ever cheat on me like I do to you

My heart will be broken and I wouldn’t know what to do
