Because you lied...

By Lylani

We were whole
One 
United

But you lied
Every truth you told now fades to grey
Each memory of us tainted

The man I loved 
I never knew
Because I used to believe in you

Now I don't know where the line is drawn
Where fact fades to fiction
Or love to loathing

I long for your touch 
So desperately
But the thought of you
Makes me sick to my core

I'm begging time to run backwards 
So I can love you again
So I don't have to find a resolution
To my heart trapped in this void of unknowing
To the slow motion shattering 
Of the perfection we were
