A Lie.

A lie is such a frail thing,
Yet, from the tail of a lie comes pain,
Anger,
Sadness,
And a mixture of the three.
I stood here too long,
Because this was all a lie,
And you were all a lie,
And we were all a lie,

And I was hurt.
Too much,
Too soon,
Too quickly,
I couldn't keep my head above water.
