Choices Between

It hurt me deeply your belief that I could hurt you when I have always innocently cared for you. I have deeply loved you for many, many years I had no need of tears... Then you came along and forced me to heal I could see the chapter clearly right before my eyes everywhere I turned, glaring me in the face, were your lies All I could do was stomp my foot like a horse standing wild It was all I could do to calm that scared little child I watched from the corner of my eyes toward every angle of my true story never told... all the scorning lies that you helped to unfold Into a place where there was not a friend to back me up Only my choices between and this empty cup.
