A Warning To Your Girlfriend
22 July, 2003

You told her she was beautiful
like a rose in a garden
without the thorns and without the weeds
so pure and true
I wonder if she knew you weren't a gardener?
You told her you'd love her forever
without a doubt,
forever and for always, no matter what
I wonder if she knew forever wasn't what it used to be?
On your one month anniversary
you sat in each others' arms, by a peaceful stream
and told her she was the best thing to ever happen to you
I wonder if she knew you were basing that
on the reasons you appeared in front of a judge?
The night she got back from out of town
you both snuck out to meet
you both recited your wedding vows, underneath the stars
as a symbol of your undying love
I wonder if she knew you were already married?
Through everything you told her,
I wonder if she knew they were just words?
You told me I was beautiful
like a rose in a garden
without the thorns and without the weeds
so pure and true
I thought you were a gardener, I know better now.
You told me you'd love me forever
without a doubt
forever and for always
no matter what
I thought forever meant until we die,
and then our love would still live on,
I know better now
On our one month anniversary
we sat in each others' arms, by a peaceful stream
you told me I was the best thing to ever happen to you
I thought you had a great life, I know better now.
The night I got back from out of town
we both snuck out to meet
we both recited our wedding vows, underneath the stars,
as a symbol of our undying love
I thought that someday we'd really do that
in front of a church full of people, I know better now.
Everything you told me was how I thought you really felt,
I know better now, and in the end, so will she.

Jerry...

Forever isn't a promise to the heart, it's an eternity. If you tell your girlfriend after 3 months that you will love her forever, she'll expect you to love her forever. Me and my ex were going out for 6 months, then it just ended. We're still friends today,(3 months afterwards) and we still know that we will always love and care for each other. Just don't promise anything you can't garentee you will keep. You can't help you love or who you don't love, you're not supposed to.
