The greatest lie I ever told was
“Yes”
when you asked if I was over you.
The second greatest lie was
“No”
when you asked if I still loved you.
Third place goes to
“I love you”
to every women since you.
Number four is
“That’s not what I meant to say”,
when I call her by your name.
Fifth, goes to
“I’ll never do that again”
when she asks if I ever think of you.


Type II poet. Its worth the work.

The biggest lies are the one's we tell ourselves.  Always listen to your heart for it always speaks the truth.

This was an intriguing read, Bronzed One.

She must have been a very captivating woman.

This totally reminds me of some conversations I had with my ex-wife as she was feeling me out about my true feelings before she divorced me.  
Not sure why I lied to her...something to do with my personality at that time and the pain...perhaps I thought she would never leave me...James

Splendid write, written from the heart, but I bet she knows.  It's just that there seems to be times when two souls just aren't in unison. I know this feeling. Hugs.
