Sweet smiles lined with lip gloss
tell the most articulate lies.
These girls have learned to deceive the weak
using their soft voices as a protective disguise.

They're trained to think it's easier to inflict pain
rather than to live in it themselves.
So they set up walls incapable of being breached
and in this womanmade pit of loneliness, they fell.

I always saw through their false lashes
and into their coffee-black tainted souls.
But it wasn't until I met the all-star actress
that on my heart, my mind lost its hold.

She became my treasure box where I stored
my secrets and stories for her to keep them safe.
Yet her snake-like tongue repeated all I invested
into building a world filled with my own self-hate.

Now, I miss her lip gloss smile
but no doubt her smile had always been a sneer.
These two-faced girls will hypnotize  you into believing
their soft-spoken lies are all you wish to hear.

Reality lies,
In ways the eyes cannot see.

The bite of your words in my ear, the touch
of your thoughts as they patter like specks of
rain on my skin, the feelings I have for
you, this undeniable and uncontrollable
attraction... they make my eyes glisten with
happiness and my stomach fill with nausea.
I cannot tell if this sickness that you
give me is just fear or if it is the
knowledge of an illusion that my heart
is presenting to everyone. Even to myself.
~~ You scare me because what if none of this is real at all? ~~

Let me believe in this.
That I've known you for so long,
Because of the laugh I solely miss,
And in time we don't belong.

Let me foolishly believe.
Seconds are longer than minutes.
I wonder how time can deceive,
With moments broken down in bits.

I will keep writing,
Though time is never unlimited.
Clocks will keep on ticking,
But still you in my head.

Let me waste time and never set.
Let it run ahead of us.
Let me forget we just met.
Let it go and pass.
We just met but I'm head over heels for him.
You came in like rain
that poured heavily,
washing away the dirt and remains
of the polluted world
but, some despised your presence
for they lacked warmth and security
you made them shiver,
you made them suffer,
when you believed that
you gave them joy
With your pure drops of water

You throw your casual lies
Just at anyone
Like a devilish *****
But that's fine for

These others
Who don't seem to be
Into the love and the explicitly

You're the kind of person
Who uses their body like poison

Instead of speaking words of trust
You hide your lies with lust
to get what you want
Their use of you is a must

You think of yourself as weapon
They think they've tasted heaven

But you know very well
What You're giving em' is hell

Tell me what I want to hear
Don't worry dear, don't be sincere
Don't fret, don't fear, I won't tear
Your memory in my mind, I'll clear

You were my only, my number one
But I fear some damage can't be undone
We were only a game, which you won
I just have to accept that it's been done

I thought you were different, even grand
But you were a pilgrim, my heart was land
Parades of flavor, yet all is left tasting bland
Worse became worst when you dropped my hand

I might have been a queen, but you were an ace
All the memories you gave will be hard to replace
Everything fell apart at far too fast a pace
I didn't realize that I was someone you could erase

Since when did honesty take a back seat
To selfishness, guess you didn't need me to be complete
Making you happy always seemed an impossible feat
It's clear now that, without me, you can still breathe

I still can't believe that you'd want to leave
Used to cause smiles, but now you've forced me to grieve
The lost parts of myself I fear I'll never retrieve
*Why was I whom you chose to deceive?

Tonight I can't stop thinking of you, and of her, and of them, and of my best friend whom you so carelessly flirted with. I can't stop thinking of the messages I found on your phone when I had just begun to trust you and God knows I can't get the things you told her out of my mind. I wonder if you touched her how you touch me...? Did you call her pretty and **** and perfect...? Did she make you feel as good as I do? I wonder sometimes, late at night, if maybe you think about her. You do not understand, my love, the absolute torture it was to watch you love on other girls, and put your arm around other girls, and kiss other girls, and **** other girls, and share those passionate moments in which I believed were just mine and yours... with other girls. Some days I can not help but feel as if I am not special at all. You touch me only how you touched the others. You kiss me only how you have kissed them. You say you love me just as you said to her and her and her and her and her... When making love is to me, is it only just *** to you? Am I only just... *** ... to you? I fear, my dear, that even now, and even here, I am only as one of your other girls. I will only become... one of your... other girls.
I do believe that you have changed. I know in my heart that you have. But you must understand that you still give me nightmares and you still make me cry sometimes and there is nothing you can do to stop these feelings... But oh, why did you have to hurt me like that???
