PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Lie to me, if you have to

Be dishonest because

I don't want the truth,

I don't want to be reassured

I need closure more

Than I need a beginning.



Push me... far, far away

Because I need you

To spurn me, I can't feel like this

Anymore, I just can't.



And if it's the truth,

I want even less to know

The truth would make me feel

More inept, more stupid

Than I already do.



I'm wound up,

And falling to pieces

A little bit at a time

Wondering what's going on

In your mind, when I already know

The answers.  I know I do.

But I need to hear it

From your lips.

Whispered over static filled

Wireless lines, to my ears.
