PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I could have lied and told you that your pretty lies meant nothing,

I could have lied and not told you that the last time you kissed me I had to close my eyes just to hold back the tears,

I could have lied and told you I never loved you,

So you'd have never known this side of me,

So you could happily move on,

But you did that anyway.I

But I couldn't lie about who I am,

Maybe that's the problem,

Because if I could lie that well,

You might still want me around.
