but i lied

you had to choose
and you didn't pick me
we both say its for the best
it wasn't going right anyway
but still i can't help wondering

do you still care
do you still think of me
are you ever gonna remember what we had
and wish that you could take your leaving back

lying awake at night
i can't deny my lies
said i didn't need you
said i didn't want you

but i lied

i pretend to smile
sacrifice myself for their happiness
shining eyes
and plastic

dear if you don't know me well enough by now
you won't understand this complexity
this heartbreak

i say you don't bother me
your comments mean nothing
i say that i've stopped
that i'm trying

that i'll work harder
i'll keep my head up
i won't bleed out my heart
oh, honey...

but i lied

Please tell me what you think

    Amazing

    For someone so young you have an amazing talent. Your poetry will help you through [Notice you have been hurt] If hurt was what was needed to bring out your talent be thankfull and build on it. Turn the negative to positive. I have a niece who is the same age as you and going through the same and i'm forwarding this poem to her.

    This so sad.
    No one should have to go through this type of heartbreak, but unfortunately it's just a part of life and things will always get better in the end.

    I love the form of this, how it's kind of broken. I like it a lot ^.^

    that i'll work harder
    i'll keep my head up
    i won't bleed out my heart
    oh, honey...
