the coward

back_stabI wake now to find my self lost
Lost is a sphere of distrust
It is here where I lay with my trust by my side
That is now shaken and broken by your whimsical lie

Foolish I felt when others around me knew
Knew of your lies and deceit, and so why didn’t you tell me?
I am a man, a man whos always been trusting to you
Why was I the last to know, while everyone else knew?

And out of all the people out there
You choose the option most cheaper
It’s the lie the hurt the most
The knife sunk in hard and you tucked it in deeper

I am tired of the hushed conversations
The small insipid remarks
Have you no fucking consolation?
I found out your secret, hidden well in the dark

Now that its open, you cant even confess
Of the lies that you did, and the mess that you made
All the phony smiles that you sent my way
All the while knowing, the one thing you could not say

So go ahead and keep your lies & cowardly smiles
I am not interested – to me thats what you are….weak
Your cowardly remarks cant break whom I am…me.

I am the man you wish to be.

One thought on “the coward”

  1. Wow papo, sorry to hear this.. Hopefully this won’t affect your future relationships. All you can do is give your heart/love to someone you deem “the one” and if that idiot doesn’t appreciate what you have then move on! Please don’t take the baggage from this guy to the next relationship..
