Liar

I got upset

I started to fret that you loved me no more

That you thought I was nothing but a bore

Did my poetry get old to you?

That’s nothing new

I knew it would but I kept on writing

I knew we were falling apart but I kept on fighting

I tried to keep hope alive

But really, long ago it died

I struggled and hit and fought

Screamed and sought for something good about you

I bought all the things you would say to me

Like “I’ll never stop loving you”

When that was never really true

I’d never felt such love before you

I’d never felt such hurt afterwards, too

What I thought was “Love” before turned out to be fake

When we were over I felt like a piece of discarded cake

Sure my jealousy was a little much but I had good reason

I was always had a hunch that you still loved her

Had no idea you would commit such treason

That honestly just tore me apart

Ever since you told me about her

I felt a slow, subtle rip at my heart

I felt it tear a little more when you talked about her

When I caught you on top of her it broke something in me

I saw spots, I couldn’t see clearly

I loved so strong but it was broken and betrayed

I shouldn’t believed the character you portrayed

You played the part of “Someone who loved me”

When all you wanted was to get laid

Son moon tix, is probably as odd a combination of letters as you might put on this page.

This is such a raw and emotional piece. You can feel the anguish and the pain which is captured beautifully. You have a great ability to let the emotion seep through the words. Really great job!

Betrayal sucks especially if you don't see it coming. Felt the hurt here. Maybe we learn though as a result of mistakes made? A universal theme Nix, relatable to many.
