Disappointment (As Seen From the Other Side)

When I first learned of your trysts in Cancun
Six weeks into our relationship - so soon!
I wanted so badly to believe it wasn't true;
That's not something my love would do -
Right?
Because I never knew that you felt for him
Never dreamt that you'd act on such foolish whims
Had no clue you were discontented.
But still hun,
"I'm not mad, just disappointed."

I was willing to act like it never happened
Pretend like your libido had never been sharpened
By another man's blade
Forget I had ever been betrayed
But you - you the culprit!
Didn't want to let it go...
You had such a penchant to misinterpret
You took my forgiveness for weakness
My calm for emotional bleakness
But I just refused to give into the madness
So I purposefully disconnected.
Babe,
"I'm not mad, just disappointed."

The problem here is that you haven't let go
You can't stop thinking of him lately -
Don't try to deny it, I know.
The worst part is I don't think you want to
I've lost the privilege of your I-love-yous
And I've all but completely lost you
So I've written you this haiku:
"To the one I loved:
I'm not really mad at you
Just disappointed."
