921. Lost Poem by V F

I remember earlier
the tears would freely flow
now I have learned control
to hold down the pain
deep within my soul

all the love i bore for you
was all true, not a lie
oh please tell me im not a sham
just out to snare and sell my ware

tell me its not true
tell me it was all a lie
tell me I am clean
tell me I am pure

please tell me
all that you said and meant
was only just a lie
do not leave me thus
bleeding to die

your words are buried deep
and i have no respite
Oh i loved you
loving you - my only crime

time after time
others bruised my heart
my body and even my mind
but now look
your words crush my soul
no more life
only death putrifies
