Dear other woman
I'm not here to judge you
Because I'm the other woman too
I just wonder if this is how it felt
Envying the woman on his arm
Wishing you were the one his friends knew
The one his mother always desired to talk to
The one he bragged about for hours
Making his friends long for a relationship like ours
I wonder how much it hurt you to see them
His hands wrapped around her waist
The same way it was wrapped around yours
The only difference being everyone gets to see it
Everyone gets to see how much he loves her
Desires her
Longs to be in her arms
They never get to see how he looks at you
I wonder if you ever felt guilty
For kissing the lips that claimed hers
For finding comfort in the warmth she called home
For seeking attention from a man who was supposedly taken
For loving the way your name rolled of his tongue
For basking in the scraps he gave
For relishing in the feeling of him
For wishing you were more
I wonder didn't it ever sting
Knowing he would never commit to you
That his heart belonged to another
That you were on the receiving end of his lust
Never his love
That maybe you were a pawn or puzzle piece only meant to fill the void
That you were only for a fleeting second not a life time
I bet it hurt knowing you were only his princess at nighttime
