I lied

by Beth   Sep 6, 2004


I lied when I said I didn’t care,
And I lied when I said it was more than fair.
I was hoping the worst would never come.
But it came and your war was won.
You severed the ties between you and me.
And you acted as if I could never see
The truth that was shining through your walls.
You said we’d see each other come fall.
But fall has yet to come to bring your prescience.
But I remember what was important: your erstwhile essence.
