I didn't hide it well
I was a liar
Who gave into the fire
I know I should've fought it
But the words just kept on flowing
My heart was in the right place
But I couldn't bring myself to show it
It isn't an excuse I promise
The more I wanted to protect you
The more I added on
Building the flames
Until no return
I understand you're hurt
Please forgive me
I'm hurting internally
My souls blackening
I wish I can take it back
But my words won't mean anything
Because I neglected the truth
When it really counted
I'm amazed
I know the flames scorched you
But my actions
Speak louder than my words
& I love you
Just watch I'll show you
You'll never have to guess
Watch our love manifest
I'll prove to you
You deserve the truth
You deserve some proof
My pride got in the way
Darn the lies
I tried to hide away
My heart aches for you
I'm so so sorry
I wish things were different
I wish the lies never started
Better yet they never slipped
From my imperfect lips
Then she looks me in my eyes
Perches her lips
And words that hurt me to the bone
Slide out
I will never trust you
& for that I can never love you
You're a liar
You manipulated me
Into believing the lies
You uttered
Were truth
My knees weakened
And you caught me
Cushioning my fall
With a bed full of tall tales
Oh how I pity the fool I've become
You poisoned me with a kiss
The lies were on your lips
& the kiss of death
Was planted
There I stood
Red faced
Burning eyed
Fist clenched tightly
It was all my fault
She'd never love me
Never forgive
Never trust me
Ever again
I sucked the marrow out of her life
Knocked her on her butt
& laughed in her face
When I lied
I was down on my knees
Crying
Begging
For all I wanted
I exhausted the truth
I was wrong
What more shall I say
I hate that you look at me
In a different light
I dislike ever bit of pain
I've ever caused
Forgive me love
Forgive me
For I know not
Of what the consequences
Would be
I'll prove to you
You're worth
Every breathe I expell
I didn't hide it well
I was a liar
Whose pants
Were on fire
This isn't child's play
I messed up
My word play
I twisted my tongue
Killed your vibes
And burn our bridge
This is the death of us
R.I.P.
To the truth
