My Life the Lie'The Long Dream Short Changed
she just put on a mask
looked me in the eyes
said I love you
went out went shopping
made dinner washed dishes
went to bed had sex didn't
hugged kissed fought cried
said I love you for a decade
behind my back in front of the world
took off the mask
looked them in the eyes
she lied all that time a constant 24/7 lie
a decade
we had a home we lived a normal life
bbq'd watched movies
cuddled laughed played cried
were scared to death together
made it thru together
all the while a secrete life
and I had none
I have nothing
I’m the product of nothing everything I have believed -a lie
everything I felt -a lie
every kiss
every night every morning every hardship every paycheck
every dinner every dish washed
every lazy day together
every time my heart felt full was a lie
every goddamn I love you was a lie
