Robert Lies

by Kailie H   Sep 7, 2008


Robert was different,
theres not enough words in my vocabulary to describe.
he meant so much to me.
but i guess it just wasn't meant to be.
theres just so much of me,
thats Robert didn't see.
he should have opened his eyes,
but then again if he did,
he would have looked in all the wrong places.

i was hiding,
not looking,
Robert found me and turned me into that someone i wanted to be.
all my secrets,
in the darkness of his closet,
slowly edging toward the front.

"Robert ;" the words fall off my tongue,
just like i fell for him.
something so wrong, it was almost right.
not lust,not love.
Breathing,living,floating.

Robert, his eyes to re-deeming.
releasing my soul into the polluted air.
i thought no one could change me,
no one could break my heart again.
i thought we could last,
his eyes lie,
as well as the ones who say they see me.

i tried to protect myself,
from something he promised he would never do.
Robert lies,
promises broken,
hearts in two,
theres nothing left that i can do.
he told me he loved me,
but then again i was the fool because,
Robert lies, and i should have known.
