Shady Friday #20

Hello Bookworms!
Okay, so I'm working on a post that isn't a Shady Friday, but I managed to complete this recently, and I decided that I needed to post it. This is in my book TreasureHood, and for me it is inspired by people who have betrayed me. In relation to the book it is inspired by a love interest who betrayed a main character, but it can be applicable to just about anyone. Okay, so maybe I listened to a few too many country breakup songs while writing this one. (Oops!) It's called I should have seen you coming. Enjoy!

It was there, before my eyes,
Should have seen through all your lies.
Trusting men will never pay,
But I looked the other way.
Said you'd stay through all your days,
Now I guess I've learned your ways,
I should have seen you coming.

You were there when I fell down,
Without you I thought I'd drown.
Raised me up when I was weak,
I was bold but now I'm meek.
I know better than to trust,
Empty lies will turn to rust.
I should have seen you coming.

You had me kept on a shelf,
Now I'm running from myself.
Hiding from the pain I see,
Now I live in agony.
Still I cannot help but hope,
You had stayed to help me cope.
I wish I saw you coming.

Okay, thoughts? I'm not really sure what type of tune to use, but that's not going to have much to do with the story. Any suggestions for what I should post about next? If not, I do have a few ideas that I'm working on. NON Shady Fridays. Anyway, I hope to be posting soon!
