This is going to be hard
but it needs to be done
Im done living this lie
all the pain and stress i feel
well you couldn't care less
I've never meant to hurt you
but i know you'll be hurting now
and I'm sorry
But you say i deserve to be happy
and since nothing has changed
how am i supposed to get past this
until i let you go
I have to grow as a person
you have to grow as a man
Take care of your responsibilities
don't leave them to me no more
And I'm sorry if this hurts but its the way i feel
and its better to end it now
then to pretend any longer

Great job expressing yourself, the truth has to come out sometime, it is too hard living a lie.

So often we keep these lies inside because we believe it would be better in the long run not to let them out, but the truth of the matter is that you're right, they do kill us inside, so slowly we don't even notice it until the lie has us in its teeth and there's no hope of escaping. I think you did the right thing at the end of the poem, where you come clean and get out of the game of pretending. It's really not worth it just to keep going on as if nothing has changed. Life IS change, no matter if we like it or not. Great job
