Farewell

English Sonnet

The painful lies you relished over me
Those empty sentiments won't bid me stay
For far too long my heart refused to see
Farewell my darling, I'll be on my way.

In truth my heart shall feel tremendous pain
The wound you carved has left an oozing scar
My strength once dead, unearth, I will proclaim
I hope to regain peace and joy, by far.

Those untruths spoken opened up my eyes
No victim now the chains thrown by the side
A stronger spirit, now no need to cry
I now look forward, heart cascades with pride.

Traveling this journey to find a soul
To save my heart and forgetting lies once told.

I don't know why someone lies to another unless he willingly deceives them for his own gain. It is a selfish act that shows no consideration. I learned a long time ago through the examples of others that you never lie to a woman. She will always find out. The resulting pain will be something that starts with a feeling, an intuition, that will carry over until the truth is learned.

You are a very good writer, good poem.
