I hate being lied to, especially in matters of the heart. I hate when a man misrepresents himself. I hate when he tells me that he loves me when he knows he doesn't. And the words "I love you" were only used to mean "I want something from you, and I'm going to be smooth and slick to get it".
A Lover's Lie
I should have seen the end of this,
Before I played my part.
I would have turned away the kiss
That took my heart.
I should have weighed more carefully
The words that you had spun,
And thus, this lie would certainly
Not have begun.
If I'd been careful at the start
Your cunning ploy to know,
I shouldn't have allowed my heart
To love you so.
