I say I’ve moved on…
That is a lie.
I say I am fine…
Also a lie.
My life has become one gigantic lie.
I never meant for this to happen, it just kind of did
Every word I speak, every action, every breath is a fallacy.
When I tell you I love you, they are not just words.
For you they have never been just words.
I tell you I am happy for you…
A half-truth.
I give the biggest, toothiest smile…
Simply a mask.
Seeing you happy makes me the happiest person alive.
Knowing I’m not the one making you happy, crushes me.
My heart aches.
You have become an alternate axis my world revolves around.
I tell you I got this…
Yet another one of my many lies.
I say I don’t need help…
My go to lie.
I play it cool and confident and completely put together, but it is all just a façade.
I am so broken.
I miss the feel of your hand in mine, the soft touch of your lips on mine, knowing you were mine and mine alone.
I say I’m not the jealous type…
A lie when you are concerned.
I say I wouldn’t change a thing about myself…
Another of my famous lies.
Right now you are so happy.
I can’t help but wonder why it couldn’t have been me.
You say they are worth it and my first thought is why wasn’t I?
The one lie I know you will never believe…
No I did not write this with you on my mind.
