THE TRUTH IS A LIE
BY MADELYN
I lied when I told the truth.
The truth was you didn't expect it.
The lie is that I did not want to believe it.
The truth is that you hurt me.
The lie is that I deserved it.
The truth is that you've been hurt.
The lie was that I could heal you.
The truth is that you broke me.
The lie was that you would build me up again.
The truth is that you loved before.
The lie was so have I.
The truth is that we both don't know what love is.
The lie is that we will never know.
The truth is that I am coping.
The lie is that I will heal.
The truth is I still love you.
The lie is that it's easy.
