LIE...

WE MET ONE DAY...

I LOVED YOU...

YOU LOVED ME...

YOU TOLD ME THAT WE WOULD BE TOGETHER ALWAYS...

AND I WAS STUPID TO BELIEVE YOU...

O HOW THE FATE...

THAT IS MY LIFE...

HAS BROUGHT YOU HERE...

BUT...

I HATE YOU NOW...

SO PLEASE LEAVE...

YOU TOLD ME THINGS...

THAT MADE ME FEEL...

LIKE I WAS ON TOP OF THE WORLD...

WELL THAT WAS THE PAST...

AND THIS IS THE PRESENT...

I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY...

YOU DID THIS TO ME...

BUT...

THAT WAS MY MISTAKE...

BELIEVING...

YOU AND THAT...

THAT ONE DREADFUL LIE...

Nothing hurts our psyche more than to have someone we entrust with our hearts tell us lie upon lie. It may be a parent, a friend, a lover...the 'who's' are unimportant. What is important is that once it has happened to us, we do our utmost to refrain from ever causing another human being such pain. What doesn't kill us only makes us stronger, some say. I believe there's a great deal of truth in that statement...

[Coyote Poetry]

A sad and powerful poem. Good to learn the truth and move on. I like the honest and direct feel of the poem.

Mistakes are just lessons to make us more wiser. Thank you for the excellent poem.

THANK YOU FOR...
TAKING THE TIME...
TO GET WHAT...
I'VE BEEN SAYING...

[Chris38]

An angry poem that leaps off the page but also a sort of calmness in that you know what you feel.

[Zeitgeist Manifesto]

Man..this was scorching hot.
There is amazing conviction in your words!

[Jeff]

Expressed very well.

[Robin]

you expressed yourself intelligently in the coming of grips of this unfortunate part of human nature we call lies

[NoneOfYourBusiness akaK..]

I love the stance from which the narrator comes at the betrayal in this poem~ with sincerity but also taking her own personal responsibility in the choice she made to believe the person~excellent!
