#87 The Bitter Truth
I'm another one of those teenagers who think they can write poems. This one is just is just about the actual me, the real me, the me that I have turned into being, and I'm sorry Brittany. I'm sorry for not loving you like I should have

The Bitter Truth
You say one thing Yet you mean another You try to be up front While hiding beneath a cover Why are you so selfish? And why so ignorant? What exactly does love mean to you Or should I say, meant? I've never known someone so fake Someone who can't speak the truth Someone so terribly insecure Someone so cruel, someone like you Why did you have to be like this You started off quite fine You would always say how much you care I guess that was just another "line" I just sit around and remember Of how much I used to enjoy your name And how I so dearly loved To play your little game But now finally I know That you aren't at all what I thought And its a damn shame too, Because I really liked you a lot |
