Liar

If I...
Caught you once, will I catch you twice?
In a world so big, like the roll of a dice. 

I won't,
Know who you're with, or who you're out to see.
Because you broke my trust, the 'us' that was a 'we'.

Second chances can be given out for free,
But, you see, it's me...
I can't change so easily.

I'll want to know who you're with, or who you're out to see.
But I won't ask, because... it's not a part of me.

Like a shattered mirror that can't be whole again,
We can't go back to what we used to be,
We can't even be friends.

Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twice, shame on me.
Fool me thrice, yet again and,
I'm a joke for the world to see.

We started out like any other,
But then you found another.
It used to be you and me,
But now there's a she.

With you...
I wanted to go farther and higher,
But there's never any smoke without a fire.
I'm sorry I can't forgive you for what you've done.
I can't forget that you're a liar.


Before you ask, NO, I was not traumatized by a cheating ex and NO, I have not experienced cheating of any kind in my life.  I just thought I would try my hand at writing lyrics for once rather than stories.  Surprisingly, it's a very tingly experience :)  Trust and cheating is a topic that I'm very adamant on.  Like this poem, I would be unable to truly free myself from... well, myself, if I had a cheating boyfriend.  My suspicions would be the death of me and I would become someone I truly don't want to be.  

Anyways, this was for FUN.  And FUN it was :)

Very well done. Hard to believe you haven't experienced these things(though I'm glad you haven't) because you captured it so well.

Wow! You're great at this!! I once wrote a poem about a lying backstabbing friend, I wrote it in a fit of rage but I won the poetry writing competition at school with it xD

/Hates you because I can't write lyrics/poem to save my life.

That was awesome, and the topic is different, not what one usually sees in poems or songs. Great job!
