the lumberjack's deceit
July 17, 2014
I used to believe the lie that
women are more manipulative than
men with our clever minds, sweet
tongues and alluring bodies but
there is something disgustingly
cunning about faking love.
You bought my heart with
acts of sincerity and affectionate
words then placed me back
on the shelf. You told me that
you led me on but I feel
as if I am a once healthy
tree felled by you only to be
left to die. You took pieces
of me that I can’t get back and
now I am incomplete.
