I held my breath

I held my breath
As you broke my heart
It took weeks for you to do it
I turned blue
And I missed you the whole time


I know whose bed you share now
You know I refused to share it
And the reasons for my choice
Preyed upon us both
Failing with one, tried the other
Sometimes within hours
You laughed when I warned you
Told me you'd shut it down


I hope it keeps you warm
That the emptiness in you fills
Your youth is a fuel
And a joker in a game without wilds


Maybe you'll change the game
But I'd bet you get played
Choosing that heart over this
Guaranteeing yours will break in the balance
Two out of three ain't bad
