Lie
I wrote this poem the same night I wrote the one about Prince Charming. So the LIE in the poem could be any lie anyone is struggling with. It’s a personal thing. Enjoy…
I’ve been lying to myself for so many years
I’ve lied to God (please forgive me)
I lied to my family and friends
This lie that has taken my heart and eaten my soul
My every thought about this lie consumes me
I am left with nothing but bone it has shredded away my flesh and drunken my blood
Evil is winning
My mind overlaps with torment and is isolated by the truth
This lie is by no means justifiable but I will give into its justifications
By letting go of who I am, what I stand for, I AM the lie
I am trapped by its deception and charmed by its beauty
It will undertake me to who I thought I was and never will be again
I’ve been lying to myself for so many years please forgive me…….
