• lying and crying

    all the lies, she keeps from him,
    they kill her inside,
    but she thinks there's nothing else--
    no other resort--
    but to keep herself from him.

    she loves her true
    and would never do
    the things she does;
    hiding everything....
    sharing no true emotion to the world.

    she paints on a happy face,
    using her makeup with grace,
    and gets ready to meet him
    for what only she knows
    is the last time.

    she tells him "goodbye,"
    and makes another lie;
    why they cant be together.
    he starts to cry,
    as he runs from her forever.

    and the girl learns for the first time,
    she isnt the only one she hurts with all her lies;
    and her sad eyes
    cry for someone
    other than herself.
