Dirty Secrets and Filthy Lies

Another emotional "You hurt me" poem

I hope you feel it from the inside and on
Every time your eyes fall on me
See what you have broken and abandoned
Home is where the heart will one day be
But you've trapped me in this hell
A thousand fires burning free
No body could ever tell
Why they always come before me

You ask me all the wrong questions
So I think it's OK to lie
You lay your blame with no reason
And you will not explain why
I know I look guilty
But this only hurts me

Run this through your mind like you don't understand
But I know you know and I know you lie
You swear on your loves grave; never take a stand
The trigger is stuck; bullets pass you by
Hey, what the hell; that's nothing new

The times you've hurt me gather
And the skin darkens its hue
There's so much I'd rather feel
But still I only think of you
Do hidden wounds ever heal?

Stop asking me questions
Maybe it's OK to lie
