The Lie Of You And I

Funny, isn't it, how the people we hurt the most are the people we love the most. At least, it would be funny if it wasn't so damn painful.

This is not my home

You can't keep me trapped here

Oh God, am I trapped here?

This is not how I planned this out

How did I let this get away from me?

Oh God, get away from me

I can't pretend I didn't want it

I can't pretend I didn't know you'd hate it

I don't know if I regret it

I don't know why I even said it

But here we are

Trapped again

In the lie of You and I

Author's Note

This was actually an idea I had for a song, but I can't sing, so the song becomes a poem instead - which is why the rhythm isn't obvious. It's hard to convey musical melody without a voice haha

You could explore 'rapping' the words of your write - with perhaps adding a few here and there to bulk out the piece. having said that; I get where you are coming from with this; there are many 'trapped' in an unmeaningful relationship - best to end than eventually become an unhealthy affair (for both parties) ... :-)
