Somewhere Between The Lies

Truth was just a hidden moment, so fleeting passing by

It laid somewhere in between the valleys,of the mass of lies

To be pulled out like a weapon, to use along with tears you cried

Tears no longer have a meaning, with my hope they lay side by side

I will now pick up the pieces,of my tattered wounded pride

I will not even bother mourning, for the love that did die


I've wasted enough time, so I will just let it go

You have said enough, I no longer need to know

Truth was like a turtle, it seemed to arrive so slow

So keep your stories of sadness, your made up woe

I have learned from this, and you I did out grow

Don't be sad, cause your halo lost its glow

About this poem:
I went out last night and seen something that brought this poem to my mind. It has given much to think about. I was married a long time. It seems some think cheating does not hurt anyone. I was shocked at how some parade their cheating around. Do they use a parade of lies to justify it?

This is something I can relate to Happy.How often many try to blanket the errors of infedility with a series of lies that hurts both the relationship and the innocent party involved.Loved this poem..excellent penmanship in this one.

Happygolucky, The pen infidelity well, for it surely should have the blushes of shame, not the glow of bravado. PHIL.

Dear Happy

There are some poems that the reader just knows are riven from the very depths of the heart. You convey the raw emotion of a betrayed lover/spouse/partner with amazing aplomb - showing not even a trace of bitterness - which in itself is amazing.

A superb write...

Kindest regards

Thanks Bill and mcduff....it does sadden me. Yet I know there are reasons for why people do what they do. Maybe unacceptable behavior. But they should not be hated. Pitied yes. How can one find happiness looking for it in betrayal?

HGL...my dear how did I ever miss this beautiful poem of yours,so true.....the lies that keep piling up day after day becomes a mantle to cover their deceit,they cleverly conceal with their charm;it sickens me to think that people claim to love and be faithful yet beneath that image of piety,they are lying.Yes my fount of tears have dried seeing their tears and the emotion put on to convince one that they were innocent.I just loved this poem,I do not like to write anymore,the ink in my poetic pen too has almost dried.
Thank you dear girl for sharing this,its a beauty.thumbs up heart wings teddybear
