I wanted to think that I was special to you; that I was different than the rest. fooled myself into somehow believing this, and lived in a state of false happiness But I was so used to being covered with your lies that when it was over you left me bare and my raw skin felt it all; the pain, the sadness, and especially the fear I've been searching for the truth ever since hoping that I could finally find comfort there but I don't even know what honesty looks like because the face of sincerity has become so rare.
