My hearts aching From what he's been saying I replay it all in my head As I get ready for a special event

I don't believe him But ignoring isn't my only whim I want to leave here For a birthday party for my nephew, I hold dear

I listen to the message one more time Although it's contents remain engraved in my mind. I search for my necklace, full of despair I don't really care what else I wear.

Why would he say that? I rolled out my welcome mat. I check my iPod and phone To remind myself I'm not alone

Why did he do this now? Did he want birthday blues to shine out? I head up the stairs, out the door. Too many feelings, for this so-called whore.

A case of birthday blues Good thing I've got my writing muse Keep it with me all the time So I'll never forget, how to rhyme.

He hurt me bad, but I'll be okay Maybe a little shaky, but it's been a better day. I'll return for the Opussian family While my birthday blues, attempts to fade away.
