Roses are red
Your heart is black
Your sugar coated lies
Filling your mouth with plaque
I’m sick of the stories
You tell with such feeling
I wished they were true
But found they were fleeting
Here is a poem
Made especially for you
I loved you before
But now I am SO OVER YOU!

She finds our he's cheating and telling the other girl that she's nothing important. The girl dumps the guy, and they all lived happily ever after. except for the ex boyfriend who could never get a date again.
