You laughed at me
Thought this all so funny
Well looks like this time baby
I'll give you a run for the money
You think you are so clever
and that you played me so very well
All you ended up doing my love
was creating a living hell
I once was this woman so very damn torn
a man, you were, who came to me
You promised deep devotion and love
you promised monogamy
I failed one day to see you the same
yeah, all at once your colors seemed to change
I found myself looking at you...
finding you oh so strange
You think I am stupid
that all the truths you tell were complete
You never thought you'd mess this up
that the truths you were hiding, I was soon to meet
I fear for our future
for my respect is slowly fading
I've made up my mind
In mire I shall be wading

I kind of like where this is headed. I think you would benefit the rhyme scheme by actively touching it up to be more iambic, which, I feel, would increase the flow of the poem and smooth some rough parts in the second and fourth stanzas.
Otherwise, I like the subtle (and at times obvious) visciousness of this poem. :) |

This was good.. Powerful and deep. I felt the pain and emotions that you packed in to this just fly from the page down into the reader.. Amazing job and a painful subject.. Well done..
Take care
*hugs*
