Lies, Deceit and Hurt
A poem about betrayal and loss of trust
————
I once thought you would never do me wrong again
I had little faith as it was or trust in men
You took my insecurities and used them against me
Now I’m sat here questioning why I was too blind to see
You’d threaten and take from me all I was proud to have in life
You didn’t just stab me in the back with your knife
I always supported you and was there when you needed me to be
Yet I’m the one sat here wondering how you could do this to me
You don’t say sorry or even acknowledge what you’ve done
I may as-well have loaded the bullets myself in the gun
I forgave you once when you played me like a fool
And still was a friend to you ..how could you actually be so cruel?
In all your mistakes I’ve always been there and supported you
Checked in when your down like friends are supposed to do
But you used and took advantage of that and led me down a winding path
I hope at the expense of my feelings and pain you’ve had a good laugh
Lies, deceit and hurt that’s all that’s left
I’m the one picking up the pieces yet still wish you the best
I wish I could purposely hurt you like you hurt me
But you know that’s not who I will ever be
Lies, deceit and hurt and yet you don’t even care
How is that even fair?
You may have taught me a lesson which I needed to learn
But you didn’t have to hurt me on purpose in return
I always tried to understand you and figure you out
Now all that’s left is nothing but doubt
Did you even mean the words you said?
So many questions left in my head
Lies, deceit and hurt yet I thought you had changed
I wish years ago we would have become estranged
The saddest part is if I knew what I do now
You know full well I’d have said no worries and worked it out some how
I would have supported you no matter what and always been there
Because even without your love as a person for you I still cared
My loyalty ran that deep I just wanted you to be happy and for you to smile
If only for a little while
You didn’t have to do what you have done
But I hope in the game you played you had fun
Lies deceit and hurt
I never deserved that
To be called awful names and told I’m a rat
When it was you all along who was playing a game
Why was it me who you tried to blame?
Lies deceit and hurt
Nothing but disconcert
But don’t worry without your apology I’m doing just fine
Sooner or later someone had to draw that line
