The Next Girl Poem by Sandra Santana Rivera

You can tell the next girl
how special she is
You can tell the next girl
how you will love her an eternity
You can tell the next girl
how you have never felt this way
You can tell the next girl
how you always will put her in her first place

But try not to talk about our history
so she won't know that you rehearsed
all your lines on me
how special you thought I was
how your love would last an eternity
how you never felt this way
how you always put me in first place
until the next girl showed up today
