Lie to me
Tell me I'm important
Tell me I matter
and that the truth will never be bent
Tell me I'm beautiful
Tell me I can trust you
and that you'll always be careful
Tell me we're the perfect two
Tell me you'll keep me safe
and that I'll never get hurt by you

Just keep telling me these lies
So when I start to believe you,
You can show me your crossed fingers
So you can point your fingers and laugh
Laugh at the gullible little girl with the broken heart
Laugh at the last girl you will ever say "I Love You" to.

Just keep lying
until you realize who you're really lying to.

I'll give you one last truth
I never really loved you

So I dare you to keep lying
until you notice ther mirror you're standing infront of

I love this poem and all of the truth behind it. Your use of repetition and how you make the words flow is amazing. Keep writing.!
