the liar

30 9 1
                                    

why did you lie?
You punched through the fibers holding our trust, thin as spider silk.

I'm less upset at the betrayal
Though that hurts as well

What set off the avalanche was
Your belief i would hate you

How could i hate you for something you are ashamed of?

I wish you shone a light on the shame, taking off the layers of deception concealing it all
