Post-Breakup Ego

Tell me you will forever
keep your faithfulness intact,
though it may not be aloud,
I will only scoff at that.

I questioned your fidelity,
and you threatened to leave.
I admitted a grave mistake,
but found a new reprieve.

It appears mine is not the only
wandering eye between us.
Now that it is over I see clear
the point in making such fuss.

You don't get or understand me. I also say
you were never smart enough for me anyway.
