I sit here in the darkness,
rendering the mysteries of my past.
I might have found the answers,
If only that love would last.
But for all the mistakes and shortcomings,
Comes a fair, brutal price.
And this one left me hanging,
Living with a heart as cold as ice.
But I do remember your dishonesty,
How you lied to me all the time.
How could you have been so untruthful to me
and make things seem just fine.
For all the times you lied to me,
For all those times of hate;
I still can't understand how that 'loved' work;
How I thought of you as the perfect mate.
For all the times you held me tight
and made me believe in you,
How you captivated my heart one day
And supposedly made these dreams come true.
And for all the times you 'loved' me more,
I understand that these things were fake.
Now I wish to start a new,
To mend this heart of ache.

wow this reminds me of my ex boyfriend Phillip. it sounds just like what i felt when he broke up with me. He's lied to me before and i understand how you feel in this poem. he always said he loved me more and i always told him no but then he went and broke my heart so he could kiss another girl. It hurt so much and it still does. well i love this poem. i so can relate to this. awesome poem.

Rhyming every last word in very second sentence, and not the other two, can be kind of difficult at times. You have done a good job of this. Good thoughts too.

Superb !!
wow! it's Beautiful yet so bitter sweet, i swear it's ironic isn't how someone you love can lie and you keep on getting used without knowing it until the end, and that's when it's obviously over! but you still love the person they pretended to be ..it's wierd i can't explain it! but this was truly an amazing poem to read! KUDOS!!!! -
