Conundrum
Open mouth and out fly lies.
Truth is much easier.
Habit perhaps.
Why?
Trust destroyed here.
Truth required to rebuild it.
Just continued deceit,
And repeat.
Tears and heartbreak overwhelm.
Your heart pickled by abuse.
Do I stay?
And cry?
I see the you that once was.
The you I loved.
I want that one back.
Are you gone forever?
Habit that I stay.
Truth that I love you.
Lie that I can’t leave.
Heartbreak.
