Love Poem: It's All Lies

It's All Lies

You’re the unmade cuts on my wrist,
and the one true smile that still exists.
You’re the gravity that holds me down,
the one and only loving sound.

I wish I could say that’s true,
but now it’s all just lies.

Now there’s cuts I can’t erase,
and my smile falters everyday.
Now I’m floating in Outer Space,
and there’s taunting voices all around.
Please help me now, I’m on the ground.

I wish you could understand, 
that without you here I can barely stand.
Now there’s tears stained on my cheeks,
but tears are only for the weak.

I was so confident and strong,
but now I’m lost inside your eyes.
I confused reality and entity all along,
and now I am noticing all your lies.

Your love wasn’t true,
and now I’m very blue.
Those three words were what made me die,
because it was all just a lie.
