Breaking Up Poem

This poem I wrote when I was feeling really sad and when I was really confused.

Sometimes the truth hurts more than a bite, doesn't it? Why did you cheat on me when I loved you so much?

Truth Hurts More Than Your Lie

Published by Family Friend Poems July 2011 with permission of the Author.

The truth you tell me hurts more than your lie
Once I learned it, I started to cry
Every time I thought of you
I remembered what I thought was true
I try to cover it as I mend my heart
It's no use, I'm broken apart
Into a million pieces I've been shattered
Not that you cared, not that it mattered
The truth hurts more than I thought
Reality showing what I forgot
My smile returns to a fake
There's nothing else for you to take
You took my heart when I learned the lie
Inside I'm dying as I try
To mend myself as best as I can
Hoping that this won't happen again
I'll try to leave this behind
As I start to find
Myself looking at you during the day
And try to find something to say
That won't bring back this painful memory
That won't remind me of what couldn't be
As I start to learn it's still true
I still find myself loving you
