Truth from a "Liar"

by Matthew-A-Cain

I loved you and I never lied We walked the nights under neon lights, and you showed me the other side of life We ran wild and crazy through the streets, then crashed hard and talked real deep Oh and you kissed me under the sheets You made me feel alive And you were a breath of fresh air upon my lungs I thought for sure you were the one I was looking for all this time So we danced and dipped and sometimes tripped but we sang endless songs I loved you and I never lied But I’m sorry I chose to walk so blind You held me close but I felt alone and I couldn’t say exactly why, believe me I tried You gave me the love I never had but you tore me apart time and time and time again Oh and I only ever got half-truths and drunken confessions You broke my heart more than once You broke my trust half a dozen times So you cried those beautiful tears and we kissed to make up And I forgave you because I’m a sucker for those eyes But we crossed the line and for that I truly apologize I loved you and I never lied But you were killing me all the time So I said my last goodbye Moved out of state because I needed the space And now that I’m gone I’m glad I moved on I hope you’re doing well and I’m sorry you’re going through hell But the world has a way, and what goes around comes around, is what they say

Notes

Break up poems and love poems might be overplayed but they are really because we all deal with heartache. This one comes from the things I wish I could have said because I chose to take all the blame instead and continue to take the blame for all that happened
