You have lied to me countless of times,
Never meant every word that you had spoken.
Every time you apologized to me
I forgave you, but then you go and brake me again.
I no longer can trust you
Nor can I let you come back to me.
To come back again and let you in
I cannot risk my heart to be shattered even more.
Even though you come back to me
Saying that you need me to mend you.
But the thing is...
I do not know what needs to be mended.
You will not let me in
Like I let you.
To get inside
I must break the shell you have put up.
Is this what they mean?
That love is tough?
I can surly say
That you make love a chore that I can do.
And that I would not trade this chore for anything in the world.

This poem, for being 'quick' is really good. I love the feeling, your conveying it well. It seams scattered, but that makes it more true, like the random thoughts whizzing around in our heads.
great line
"Is this what they mean?"
it gives us just enough info for this line to probe into out hearts, but not enough to come up with a solution. Great job,

I like this a lot. It does sometimes feel like a chore, but it is worth it. Best of luck in the contest. Keep on writing, ~TC
