???(Was He?)

tall dark and handsome....

spittin game so smooth they slid off his tongue like butter off of a warm knife....

said all the right things at all the right moments...

must have been heaven sent...

but was he?



ear to bend...

willing to listen....

shoulder to cry on....

ready to embrace....

said everything will be alright...

made you believe he'd always be there....

but was he?



promised to treat you like a queen....

make you forget that other brotha....

be your friend and then your lova....

said only God would come before you...

but did he?



told you his search was ova....

you were definitely "the one"

couldnt see his life without you....

begged you to have his son....

sung baby you complete me....

you lost focus of your goals....

now baby's here and daddy's gone...

he left you all alone....



put your trust in man again...

let lonliness rule and lust come in...

ignored all instinct....

trusted your heart....

prayer the end...instead of the start...



yeah, tall dark and handsome...

said all the right things at all the right times....

must have been heaven sent....

but was he?
