Farewell to My Secret Lover

I held you close, my secret lover,
Daddy to my babygirl, we had each other.

The magnetism between us was undeniable,
Our attraction electric, love unquenchable.

But you betrayed me with your words and deeds,
Saying one thing and doing another, oh the deceit!

I mistook your emotional distance for chemistry,
Blinded by love, I failed to see the reality.

Holding space for you, I thought you’d come around,
But you took advantage and crossed the line bound.

Now we don’t speak, you with an avoidant personality,
Leaving me in pain, my heart shattered in its entirety.

No longer my Daddy, not even a friend,
An ex-lover, though we never went around the bend.

The memories still linger, the pain still stings,
But I’ll move on, healing my heart’s broken wings.
