Holding My Tongue

Just the other day I felt our love astray
Holding my tongue gasping for air 
Just the other evening we went out as a couple but yet I felt we were'nt hole
Holding my tongue so I would'nt spoil our time together
Just the other early morning when the sex had just begun it was weak and had 
no force or vibe
Holding my tongue as I layed there wanting to cry
When I spoke to you your reply was a sigh and a simple sentence
Holding your tongue you need to learn and everything is alright
So tell me why you cheated and pushed me away making me question myself if 
there shall be better days
Holding my tongue to not have pushed you another inch away
Do you think I'm a doll that you can take of the shelf and play with when you feel 
the need
Holding my damn tongue  with fierce
Listen hear you have a strong beautiful lady in your life that you need to 
appreciate and show love and  that respect
Holding my tongue that you ask of me
No man in their soung mind could treat me so
Holding my tongue with bitterness and a foul taste
Thinking what a damn disgrace and this man has me misplaced
Holding my tongue I am certainly not
After I am human and have so much too give
Holding my tongue won't make things better
After all we have been through that I shall not sit and stress myself
Hold your own damn tongue because to me this journey did'nt just begun
Take your dirtyness of a self twisted mind and stop and think I'm wiser and have 
already read through the lines
Hold my tongue to the actions you've revealed that you think i'm blinded by your 
cold deserted love
Look into yourself and hold your head down in shame because to me my love is 
no game
Holding my tongue is not my style nor is the rules you have applied on our 
relation
You need to recongnize a lady and treat me like a lady
Holding my tongue is'nt my character and i'm not perpetrating a fraud so don't 
feel i'm going to live my life amongst being shady
Evaluation is not in the book of love nor is passing judgement the way you throw 
it at me with that famous curve ball
"HOLD YOUR OWN DAMN TONGUE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
