Another lie

by theory of the loser   Jul 8, 2010


My heart cries for honesty,
the betrayer knew,
knew everything,
how to get to me,

I cannot hate,
I cannot lie,
for a person as I would surely die,

not another game to be played,
not another rhythm to be named,
not another child to be tamed,

no I'm the last one,

cannot protect me,
though the man promised he would,
The betrayer lied, another lie,
delivering another black eye,

a friend no more,
a parent's amour,
destiny's child,
British decor,

a broken home,
a broken life,
a broken heart,
a broken boy,

another lie,
then the living dies..

This is about a broken home. Where someone is either beaten or blind sided by something just as cruel. I had to write this, because I felt others should know what I was trying to get at. Anyways, please review.
