The Lie

With my love comes a peace of mind, 
That I will forgive you for your previous lies,
Though untruthful words muttered bruise my heart,
The love bursting through your soul could be considered art,
I feel the peace that you receive, 
While you lay beside and watch me sleep, 
I hear the silent thoughts within your mind, 
That you will love me for all of time,
For my love I'll forgive you dear,
But for next time lets make it clear,
I will not be a used word bin,
Do not mistakenly lie again.
