Once a Liar, Always a Liar

The Ending

What can I say? Thank you for coming into my life and screwing me over. Thank you for wasting my time. Thank you for messing with my head. Thank you for all the times you lied and played with my heart.

You were so good to me, at first. You were the love of my life... I will never forget you. I will never forget how your eyes shined the absolute brightest when you danced in those winter crystals of white.

I believed you... I believed every time you told me you loved me. I'm sorry...

I'm sorry for thinking you were a better person. I'm sorry for thinking that you were in love with me. I'm sorry for whatever I must have done. I'm sorry for wasting my life away. I'm sorry for spending every last dollar and dime just to spoil you, because even though I gave you more than enough attention and affection, I still wanted you to have more.. I wanted to give you the world. My world. My all. My everything.

There were many nights that I would sit in my bed and smile to myself, because I had you. Now? I've lost you, but wait- I didn't just lose you... You know that little, six-letter word? Family? Ring a bell? Yeah, I lost that too... You had your mother's wit and charisma. You had your father's stern glare and his love for sports. Remember when you told them you wanted to marry me? At least, that's what you made all of us believe. Remember when you talked about the children we would have someday? Our beautiful offspring pitter pattering on the hardwood floor of our future home? I thought you meant it. It seemed so genuine, but I guess I didn't know anything. I didn't know who you were, after all. I didn't know you were capable of betraying the ones you loved. If you loved me at all? I never thought you would stoop so low.

How? How could you do that? What went through your head? Did you think of me when you were with her? Did I even cross your mind? Did I really not mean anything to you? Did I ever matter? I'm sorry... I shouldn't ask questions that I don't want the answer to. I guess I will leave by saying, "thank you". I'm grateful for all of the painful memories and moments that have been permanently engraved into my mind and heart. Thank you for everything!
