Unforgivable

You broke my heart, crushing it with your lies until it couldn't bear the weight of one more. And I lost sight of the love in your eyes, obscured by shadows that weren't there before. Hope never wanted to believe the truth, as long as there was a chance, Doubt was wrong. And I kept blaming the jitters of youth, feeling confident our bond was still strong. Warned that I was being played for a fool, I wasn't quite ready to abandon trust. For I didn't believe you'd be so cruel, as to exploit love, to satisfy lust. When lies poison what makes life livable, it's beyond wrong; it's unforgivable.
