That One Hurt

Standing in the doorway
my ear pressed to the wall
My straining ears could hear your words
When you made that awful call
I heard you speak her name
It froze me to the spot
My heart seemed to stop beating
And the pain felt like a shot
I knew that it was coming
But fear put me that close
And listening to your words
my mood became morose
Now trembling devastated
I stumble back and run
Away from you from her
The devastation done.
