No More Lies


The night you held me
led me to believe you were mine.
The night you kissed me
sent shivers down my spine.

The time we spent together
gave me hope.
But the time you left me
I couldn't cope.

When the only word you spoke
was a straight lie.
I tried my best to not let
you see me cry.

And when you said "I Love You"
I walked out the door.
Simply because I couln't handle
your lies any more.

Very well written. A relationship just can't exist in an atmosphere of lies, can it?

Nice. It's always good to put those like that behind you.
