-the year long lie-

TWISTING, TWIRLING, TURNING LIES
VERBATIM, VERBATIM,
NEVER ASKING WHY
NO CONTEMPLATION,
NO HONOR OR RESPECT
BUT WHY?

TWISTING, TWIRLING, TURNING LIES
VERBATIM, VERBATIM,
NEVER ASKING WHY
A BLOW TO THE HEAD
A PUNCH IN THE GUT
FOLLOWED BY A SOBBING WHY?

TWISTING, TWIRLING, TURNING LIES
VERBATIM, VERBATIM,
NEVER ASKING WHY
A BLOODY WRIST
THE RUSTED KNIFE
A PLEADING WHY?

TWISTING, TWIRLING, TURNING LIES
VERBATIM, VERBATIM,
NEVER ASKING WHY
A TRUST FORGOTTEN
THE TRUTH RIPPED OUT
THE TEENAGE YEARS
WITH NO QUESTION WHY?

TWISTING, TWIRLING, TURNING LIES
VERBATIM, VERBATIM,
NEVER ASKING WHY
NO JUSTIFICATION,
NO APOLOGIES ACCEPTED
JUST THE YEAR LONG --- LIE

TWISTING, TWIRLING, SCREAMING CRIES
VERBATIM, VERBATIM,
NEVER CARING WHY



Author notes

MY FEANCE OF OVER A YEAR HAS LIED TO ME JUST ABOUT EVERY DAY.
She made me believe something that haunted me every day, and always came up in my head. Now she tells me it was all a lie. I’m hurt. I don’t even want to give her another chance. I wish not to say what the lie was (only out of respect for her)

    I wanted this contest to be for everyone and for everyone to make it personal. You almost made me cry. I am so sorry that you have been hurt this way and although I don't know what the lie was about with you saying that it haunted you everyday made me believe that I know. I can guess. I hope that you can move on from this and find somone to make you happy and not malipulate you with lies and deciet.Thank you for entering and sharing your hurt with me. Good luck in the contest and take care x

    Great piece, thank you

    Wow, this is so powerful, I like the repeating of the phrases, it lends power to your message. I believe you meant "apologies" instead of "apologize" though. Keep on writing from your heart, and although I know it's hard now, time does heal all wounds. Thank you for posting this, and for the generous comments about my work.
