Lies Along The Broken Path

Lies Along The Broken Path

A Story by Ammietia
"

About a boy who wouldn't let me go.

"

What am I to say? For everything you've done, for everything you haven't. Theres no possible way of a happy ending for the both of us.

You annoy me so much, but at the same time I don't want to hurt you by telling the truth. Please don't take this as me denying "whats meant to be." I don't like you in that way. I would feel this way if it was anyone else.

Everything you say just makes things more complicated. These days I don't want complications. I want to sleep peacefully, I want to live my life smiling. Theres only so much time for me to smile in between tragedies, I don't need any moments wasted.

So please forget. Forgive me for the truths I cannot say. Forgive me for the lies I have said. You might never realize how many lies I've told. I would wish you never to truly know, though I do suspect you have a guess. Shut it away, believe the lies I've told you. They will cause the least amount of pain.

To all have come along this path, I say sorry. I cannot make up for the lies, I can only hope that you never count them all up. I am a coward, but I won't lie to myself. I cannot be with you, and you cannot be with me.

I cannot say that I am sad about this, as much as you would like me to tell that lie as a truth. I've told too many so far, but I cannot stop. My heart was never yours, and your heart was never mine. This is the one truth I will tell before hiding in my shroud of lies.
