I’m tired of the backhanded lies

That spill from your mouth

Just spare me all this pain

And just end it already

I’m done trying to keep this friendship going

Especially since you never seem to want to keep it

I’m tired of your deceptions

You can say you “love” your new girlfriend all you want

Just remember that when you “love” someone you don’t lie to them

I already know that lying, because you did that lie with me

And made me promise to keep the lie going to

Cause you know that I can’t betray you.

lies are just the fear of the truth...emotional and poignant..

You have captured love perfectly! If you love someone, you are correct you do not lie. Love is about trust! Beautiful work!

[John Jackson (El Juero)]

Through your writing, it is plain to see that you already know what to do.
Please, don't betray yourself...
