Lie
You broke my heart
Right when I was falling for you
You lied to me
You said there was no part two
Lie
You said I’m perfect
Lie
You said I’m beautiful
Lie
You said I have the prettiest eyes and smile
Lie
I got played by my boyfriend
Now Ex
I thought there was love in your eyes but there wasn’t
It was lust
You couldn’t get what you wanted so you went to the one I worried about most
Thank you for lying
Thank you for hurting me
Thank you for teaching me what it’s like
You were great while you were here
But ended it in a bad way
You say you want to try again later
But I know that’s a lie
You said you didn’t want to break up
But I know that’s a lie
I know all you told me were lies
You couldn’t even finish the conversation
You did it over text too
I know you slept and didn’t care that night
But I didn’t sleep
But when I did I woke up with my pillow soaking wet from tears
It hurts when I know you didn’t have any tears
It hurts when I know you didn’t care about me at all
But then again I need to remember your just a boy not a man
Even though I want to hurt you back
I never will
I’m still going to support you and be proud of what you accomplish
I’m still going to keep your secrets
Because that’s who I am
I want to say I’m okay and over you
But I’m not
When I hear your name or think about you
There's still that aching feeling in my heart
But I need to remember you are just a boy not a man
And I will find someone ten times better

I wrote this the day after I got broken up with over text at one in the morning. he was my first boyfriend so this poem has a special meaning to me.
