Poetry: Hard times
Article Toolsby Philip Stock
Trust
You looked in my eyes
Made all those piercing lies
All the memories you left in my head
Of things I believed you said
Close your eyes don't look into mine
You thought these lies would get you out fine
I thought our relationship was as strong as could be
But you'd rather have him and merely kill me
You said I was the only one for you
I trusted too much and believed it was true
I trusted by the look of your eyes
Those looks were just another part of all your lies
Every word you said to me is now dead
They sink in the sea as a ball made of led
You denied it when I saw a small sign
You made me feel as the fault there was mine
I asked and you said you wanted me and only me
But you lied through your eyes if only I could see
The loss of all I believed to be true
Is gone in the color of your eyes so deep blue
