The Lie

You say you need to find yourself but can’t you find yourself with me. Am I not a part of you? You said I was yours. You said you were mine. What has you in this state of confusion? What has driven you so far away from me? My heart is lonely and cannot fathom the idea of being without you. As always I stand here with my heart drowning in its own pool of blood. My lungs filled with your lies and breathing is almost incapable to do. I am walking in this place called solitude and torment has become my friend. You have thrown it all away. I was whole when I was with you and now pieces of me have been scattered in this vast world called insecurity. The pieces I cannot put back together. You have broken me without looking back to see what has become of me. My eyes are flooded with the tears that have made me blind. I cannot see where I am going. I run around in circles caught up in a whirlwind of a deception of lies. Lies you vowed not to speak. Did you not love me like you said you loved me? Who has caught your heart? Your body, heart and soul belong to me. You looked into my eyes and promised an eternity with me. I guess even eternity has an end and that end is now.
