Hidden behind your slightly imperfect smile
hollow words drip weightlessly from loving lips.
Eyes glazed with a mischevious haze.
I know a lie is slipping through translucent air
another elaborate story will unfold before us.
The usual tears will form from heart broken love,
Today is different,
I turn to you lean in and whisper
I don't love you anymore.
Knowing this statement is a lie.

Seems heartbreaking to me.
I guess, the sentence "I don't love you, anymore." is so harsh that it should be considered as a lie and all ~
Hmm, I really have nothing to say since I'm biased about how love is kind of naive(After all, I've been single ever since
)
Overall, not a bad write, all right
