You Lied
By: JoAnna Martin

It hurts to realize how much I cared,
especially since I found out you were never really there.
You lied to  me for so very long,
always making it look like I was wrong.
Now I know the truth and the truth really kills
cuz my life was finally going good and now it’s going back downhill.
Now I’m feeling insecure, scared, and paranoid
and many other feelings I have been trying to avoid.
I blame you for everything because of your lies
and if my heart breaks again and then finally dies
I’ll still blame you for all you’ve done to me,
how my emotions crashed in my head like waves inside the sea.
My emotions can hurt the one ones that I love
so now I’ll just look to the sky up above
and pray I don’t hurt the one who means so much to me.
I love him very much, more than he can see.
I never want to hurt him with my foolish fears,
I always want him by my side, always want him near.
If I wind up hurting him because of the pain I feel from you,
Be sure to know that I will blame you for all that too.
