As Lies Unravel Poem by kirsty bain

As Lies Unravel



can you look me in the eye
can you even begin to tell me why?
and please please
dont lie
everything you have said to me
in the past
was what you would think
what would make us last
but as the
painful days past
your lies began to unravel
you didn't have to lie in the first place

it seems as if you were hiding behind them
as if they were a mask
hiding all that was wrong
what was it
that you longed?
was it the touch
or the love
of another
was it finally
to be cared for
or was it just to
put people through the pain
that you have had
to suffer through
your whole life
i know what your feeling
as you cry yourself to sleep

i may seem happy on the surface
but
some things
can only be skin deep
sometimes
you have to look at the bigger picture
before
you start to guess the scripture
which is what
has happened through my
past
my present
and what pain comes next
in the future

can i give you some advice
next you you go to betray someone
through lies of love
think of the consequences
and the pain that
you could cause
you arn't a criminal
no, no your not
your just a lost angel
trapped n the pain
of the past and how nothing you did
you were never good enough

can you see through
blood shot eyes
you would
tear yourself open
just to feel the pain
of sewing yourself shut
tear your heart
into two
just to feel

your drowning in the water
and i tried to grasp
your hand
but your mind is infected
with the venom of your past
your wanted me to leave you alone

but something told me to stay
and now im standing here
looking dumb
cuz i changed my whole life
just to fit your lies
