Lies of the Heart

Inside my dreams, I'm still in your embrace,
Loving every touch, every breath and kiss
Or simply looking at your pretty face,
Verifying I, alone, give you bliss.
Each glance, each smile still lives within my heart.
Your words still resonate inside of me
Only to tear inside and rip apart
Undying love that was meant to be.
Killing me slowly, I live without you
And all that's left is my betrayed soul,
Ravished by you, wondering if you do
Love me, still. Dare I ask or want to know
About your motives when you looked in my eyes
Daring to say you loved me, though you lied?

Author's Note

Dare I ask or want to know about your motives when you looked in my eyes, daring to say you loved me, though you lied?

Interesting indeed, but I love it. One of my personal favs I must admit. Well done.

Tough poem about the contradictions in relationships.Good work.

Tear drop words, full to the brim with pain... and some anger there too.

My ex wife did exactly the same thing to me. Looked me in the eye, said she loved me, then ripped my heart out and spat in my face as if I was an intruder in her mind and a tempest in her soul. All the while she pretended to care, as if I was her only and she acted as she was also mine. I can and certainly do identify with this. Very well done my friend!
