Bitter Truth

A lonely heart in me
Was stabbed by your care
Loving me as you see
turned my life to a nightmare

Every sweet word was a knife
In my heart cutting so deep
Trying to shine my life
But you took away my sleep

I lied to you to be with you
But my lies digged deep eating me
I tricked you I know I do
By that I've given my soul for free

Once telling the truth I decided
A bitter truth better than a sweet lie
I explained everything I hided
Hoping with that my pain will die

A truth I know very well
My heart can never do well
What was the need to tell
I moved willingly towards hell

It can never has a good ending
Whatever I try you will see
Pain and tears all I'll be having
Because the writer is me.........

The distraught hopeless feeling of forcing out a truth that was hidden by lies is a hard one to bring forth but as it is sometimes relief is not given but more sorrow. I have been here many times and now only truth falls from these lips. A well written poem and the sorrow tugs at ones heart.

Such an intimate vision, taking us inside the heart and mind of love's pain and fleeting pleasures. Your rhythm and rhyme dance the words across time...

I agree with Amber. Very painful, but so deep. You really pulled some of the major heartstrings with your wording. I love it.

a very painful poem. most of the time, the bitterest truth is better than the sweetest lie. you've penned this nicely, though it can still be improved. :) oh, and the last line is quite powerful. keep it up! ^_^
