lies

you find out who you are
by meeting someone you're not
opposites always tend to attract
and that's what we always were
we agreed upon going into the relationship
with no expectations
i had none
i only hoped you wouldn't end up
like the others
but for a brief moment
it was perfect
or at least what i think perfect is
until you danced till dawn
with your platonic man friend
and "accidentally" kissed him
i could never understand that
how do you accidentally kiss someone?
did you trip over something
and somehow by the miracle of chance
your lips just happened to land on his?
please...I'm stupid but I'm not ignorant
but now you ask for my forgiveness
and beg to rekindle a love
that was quenched by your lies
but forgiveness is something
you will never receive from me
because I'd rather live in the memory
of our imperfect perfect love
than to rekindle a love that has
been tainted by a hundred
no strike that
a thousand of your lies
