Deceived Poem by Thomas Howe

You can’t hide the lies
I can see it in your eyes
So just give your goodbyes

I wished I regretted it
But I cared more than a bit

Don’t ask for a new slate
Because it’s too late
I would love to say I hate

As much as I want you back
Forgetting is something I don’t lack
So you might as well pack

I will forgive your offense
You were a weakness in my defense

Now I have built a wall
That is big and tall
Even love can’t have it all

Miss me that’s how it should be
Why couldn’t you see

When you went and cheated
How much pain you created
When you mistreated

The one who cared
When you were scared

Now you nothing more than a stitch
Like stagnant water in a ditch
You’re a ____________.
