I lied

by Chelsey   Apr 11, 2011


I've set aside pages in my diary
to scribble your name in ink,
engrave my confessions on a blue line,
admit and acknowledge one thing-
I lied

Tactics I've tried have failed
Drunken nights led to humiliation,
getting high never erased the hurt,
burning pictures didn't heal my pain,
and filling voids reminded me of you

I've never been fond of liars,
but I confess I am one
They all believed me when I said
I fell out of love with you,
its far from the truth

There is still a passion inside my soul
that craves for your heart
to stay forever in my heart.
If I confess to you my true feelings,
will it bring you closer to me?

A liar I am and maybe always will be
if telling the truth gets me nowhere with you...

    Another interesting read that was enjoyable. Once again an emotional write and the poem came across as honest. I don't know if this poem reflects a situation you are in or if it reflects a situation of your imagination but I really enjoyed every part of this poem even though it is a sad read. It is a shame when the truth doesn't change anything.

    5/5

    How good does it feel to just write this down on paper and get out all those emotions? It always makes me feel a lot better to just admit that I made a mistake and be honest with myself. It takes a strong person to not only recognize mistakes, but to fix them. Great job again, you know I love the love poems haha

    I don't know whether to appreciate it much or would just like it because I've read some of your piece and i felt the impact on those poems..but on this one, i know it has its loneliness and desire yet there's something in it that lacks.

    by the way, It's flawless..
