Lied About Death

by Unseen Exposure   Apr 26, 2005



Do you know you lied to me
Do you comprehend what I say?
You said that you were dying
And you asked for me to pray.

But you're not even sick
You're healthier than ever
You laugh, smile, and joke
As if you've never been better

Your test results were fake
I bet your doctor isn't even real
You heart doesn't need to get better
There's nothing wrong to heal

Are you really that deluded
To lie to get some attention?
Don't tell me it's not what you're after
That it was never your intention

Do you really think it's okay
To trick people to the point of tears?
I wonder how long you've lied
Over these wonderful. 'honest' years

How could you pretend you love me?
While making me live a lie
I remember the day you told me
"It's inevitable, I'm going to die"

Recklessly wild in your convertible
You said it'd be our last fall
Well summer came and went away
And autumn's hit the wall

I'm happy you're still here today
Glad that you're still alive
Especially since you made me believe
By this time you'd have died

You treated me like I was your own
You took me under your wing
But you made me look a fool
And it's unfailingly embarrassing

But I have got to know your reasons
Was it really necessary to lie?
I'm done with your careless untruth's
I don't have anything more to say ....

^ So I was lied to ... she told me she was dying. But she's not. I don't know whether to be happy, or livid!!

    Is this about who I think it is?

    I really admire how you wrote about the betrayl and foolishness produced from the lie. I also admired how you were able to elaborate off of the lie itself and what a huge impact it had caused in the first place.

    I absoulty loved these lines,
    "Well summer came and went away
    And autumn's hit the wall"
    the way you described time passing was unique and orginial.

    Well done, lovely.

    So i like the poem. but the story around that is kinda ironic. See,... I just found out like two weeks ago that someone in my family who said they were terminal .... acually wasnt. It pissed me off. The only thing thats really different ...heh... is i know im mad at her for it. And shes never been around to care for me, shes just that person that you see and feel bad for,
    heh.

    Good luck with that.
    Great write, loved how the words flowed.

    The nicest people do the most horrible things. I remember when my dad tried to drown me, what fun!
