Things You Said / The Lie

Of course I knew what you did. I accepted it although it was the worst you could've done

You said “I will always love you.”
I believed you.
You said “I will stay forever.”
I trusted you.
You said “You are my everything.”
I loved you for it.
You said “She means nothing.”
I accepted that.
You said “I'm going out tonight”
and I was in pain.
You said “I was drunk”
I pretended to understand.
You said “Everyone makes mistakes.”
I thought that you shouldn't make them twice.
You said “It was just a kiss.”
I knew better than that.
And then finally
Drowning in a pool of my own blood and sadness
I realized
Absolute denial and devotion
That's what it was
What it did to me, what you expected of me
And it’s what I gave you
In the end you said
“We're over.”
And I saw it coming
Telling you I was fine, absolutely fine
And again one of us lied.

Author's Note

Yes I am back. Finally, it's been too long, I've been very busy, sorry.

A lot of people out here will be able to relate to these words of yours, and why no one has left an opinion before now is beyond me....... Neville
