Remember that night, you said you were sick at home
but I saw you at the mall and you weren't alone

You held her so close, you kissed her neck
but I was your girlfriend really, what the heck?

I hated then wanted to punch you or even just slap you on upside the head
that very moment I wished you were dead

I went home and I cried as if someone had died
Trying to understand why you had lied

the truth is I did nothing wrong
I was the best I could be all along

If you want to cheat on someone, then I'm happy to see you go
Because I know I'm better than that little knowing h.o

Once a cheat always a cheat
And one day soon you’ll be beat

Because you cheated on me with a cheat
And sooner or later she’ll do to you what you did to me

and when that day comes I’ll laugh and say this
But you where suppose to be home remember you were sick

I agree with Nikiblue on the stanza thing.

You did a nice job on this , but I must admit it'ss one of your weaker poems.

 

Keep trying , you are fantastic!

This was very good. The last two stanzas were a little weak though, simply because you lost the rhyme scheme, but all in all very good (:
