The Undercover Waiter
by Danielle Motley

When he walked through the door I saw his face
Right then I wanted him to be mine
He looked nice and I knew he was in the right place
His presence had me confined

I vowed to have him, I wanted to kiss him
To become close to his heart
We talked, we flirted, we laughed
It was a wonderful relationship that he had

Then he left so abruptly
Almost without a trace
And the look upon my face could have made anyone cry
When I found out who he really was

A cop, a man of mystery
Moving undercover from town to town
I don't even know his real name
I feel so foolish, I feel so much shame

This man I trusted, I told him secrets
I thought he told me his too
He could have made up everything
His life, his family, even his name

Bryan, how could you do this to us?
We let you become one of our own
I really wanted to be your friend
Why did you do me so much wrong?

I know being undercover was your job
But I mean, god, you didn't have to lie
You didn't have to pretend to like me
You didn't have to make me cry

I'm so upset about this man
I don't know what to do
This mess he made, no one else can
How to fix it I have no clue

Look at what you've done to us
How do I get back to normal? What can I do?
You took away my trust
I just hope I can get past this, get over you.
