You Shouldn't Have Kissed Her
It's Over Before It Started
I thought I could trust you with my secrets.
I will keep your secrets.
I thought we were friends who respected each other.
I respect you.
You told me you were done with your old life.
I am done with my old life.
And were no longer going to use women for the moment.
I feel bad I've disrespected women.
The trouble is, I believed you.
I really want you to believe me.
It felt like our friendship was meant to be.
I think we might be soulmates.
But you kissed her at the party, in front of me.
I am a single guy.
Liar.

Why? I wasn't used to smiling or laughing. After a few months of doing that, I never have a sore face, sides, or belly from laughing as I laugh enough.
