Love Poem: Barrage of Lies

Barrage of Lies

The result of your destruction
the bane of my plight
was buried in the muddy earth 
just tryin’ to win this fight
I hate that I kept faltering 
between my own convictions
your sordid ways were always sure
to add to the affliction
I don’t think that you ever cared
but you knew wrong from right
defeated by your endless lies
I left without a fight
I’d rather live in solitude
without a compromise
than dwell within the boundaries
of your barrage of lies
