The True Lie

by keith   Feb 5, 2012


This lie's become a part of me
For months, I've played this game
Acting like it doesn't hurt
Each time I hear her name
Ignoring what's inside of me
Pretending I've moved on
As if the feelings I once had
For her are somehow gone
Spending each and every day
With happiness and laughs
Forgetting all our memories
Avoiding photographs
But last night when I saw her
For the first time since she left
My heart stopped for a moment...
I couldn't catch my breath
When suddenly it hit me
As the tears started to flow
That even after all this time...
I just can't let her go

    Very well expressed emotions in this piece. You should add some commas here and there so that it flows even better.
