[hometext] => Not about me or anyone I know, just thought of it.
[bodytext] => Wells up inside of me as you tell me I can't believe this is all true Please, Please Lie to me No lies could make me feel worse than your truth does Don't turn and leave I know I've been and idiot to put up with you But when you look me in the eyes And swear that you love me, when I know You don't It's all worth it The tears form now as your hand slowly rests on the door knob and turns you out of my life I think I'd die If this is my life And it is The pale glass on the door shows You walking down my path Heels clicking on my paving Spearing my heart with every step I feel like my soul's been wrenched out of my body I pour salty pain on the carpets though it might as well be blood You draw everything out of me even though you're not here and I'm missing my most vital organ She just got to the pavement into her car and her lies fuelled the way out of this life At least you were good at lying ones I could learn to believe it's not like you were'nt good at excuses I open a bottle of wine red Make a cocktail with my tears in a glass Take your photos and drink them too All the things you left The hats and shoes The dress you wore at every important event in our life together I smell it and I'm back in a time when you, at least, were happy I replace it and pour another glass I read the poems you wrote to me They were'nt very good but they told me the lies I needed to believe to give me meaning Another crystal goblet filled with crimson nectar And i look through your Boxes, full of rubbish you couldn't bring yourself to throw out. The cards I sent you The gifts I gave you The things I made you keep You told me I'd done nothing wrong and that you'd been lying to me I wasn't at fault and you couldn't live this lie with me one more day I drain the glass and go to the bottle But it's empty Like me How you left me drained me like this sweet red wine then left for something true Im dying without you And I'll die every day without you telling everyone we've split apart and that we called it a day Living in this house we shared in so many memories here Please Ill take the lies Just don't go come back and feed me with lies They've got more substance than you [comments] => 1 [counter] => 154 [topic] => 48 [informant] => somnium [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )
