Dear Mr. Liar

by Tammie   Jan 16, 2008


Blown lights and broken windshields just don't do what they used to for me,
Everything seems so dull and lifeless now, but I guess it always will be.
Tomorrow is just like yesterday and today turns another dollar like minutes,
And nothing can mean something but it all just seems like it counts for digits.

These words don't say what they used to yet their significance is the same,
Time passes like the clouds float in the sky but one thing that'll stay is the name.
Bows don't appear to tie the same and the silver doesn't shine the way it used to,
Mirror to me how it was in this place when you were with me for everything I went through.

Stars shine but aren't as hot, yet the thought of you gives me cold feet, whereas
The soft twinkle in your eye used to keep me warm like no one else ever has.
Character arguments and false imagination screams to me how I never thought it would,
For common sense never got the best of me when you were around, like that could.

Mixed words and shattered metaphors just don't say what they used to for me,
And yes I'm repeating myself once again, but I guess I always will be.
Tomorrow is just like yesterday but today I've ridden happiness to your doorstep
Left a letter titled Dear Mr. Liar, telling you that I'm making this my final first step.
