Cheater

I will not tell you about the boy who cheated on me.

There is no reason for you to know.

I never went out with him last night.

We weren’t alone in that white pick-up truck.

Steam was not climbing the windows.

I never told him I changed my mind.

We did not go back to the house party.

He did not refuse to let me drink from his cup.

I never had to sleep on my friend’s couch

Tears were not running down my cheeks

He definitely did not cheat last night.

Fury never sprouted in my heart,

Anger never festered in my soul.

And certainly, I don’t need to tell you about it.
