Paranoia

You thought you had the answers
and went ahead and judged,
but faith I have deep in myself-
my point I did not budge.
With acid tongue
you hid from me-
You saw no forest
from the trees.
How simply did I
tell the truth,
profusely you
did lie.
I do not understand the reason.
I cannot even imagine why.
What might have been a super start,
You unraveled and tore apart.
I've no ill will,this tale is done.
You're back to where you've just begun.

we all lie, to hide to build oneself up. it all comes out in the end.....you find their real being, real heart and soul, I think many people have discovered or just ignored this......wonderful poem.....

so easy to see someone as we think they are by a few lines,
I have built a whole personallity and put it on a man I thought was what I wanted,
but he was himself and i did not take time to see him:-).
but yes a lie is a very shaky foundation to begin something on I agree
