You Lied

You told me

we would stay close.

We would live our lives together

and nothing would change.

You told me

that my thoughts wouldn't change our connection.

And then you lied.

You lied when I asked what was wrong.

"Nothing."

Nothing was all I got for a while.

Nothing on my phone.

Nothing on your mind.

You lied when you said it was okay.

You are a liar.

And I am lost.

I'm lost without our friendship 

and your thoughts

and your encouragement

and everything I used to look forward to.

I'm lost without the light in your eyes 

telling me everything will be okay.

It isn't and it never will be.

Because you lied.

And then, finally.

Oh, finally, I told you that I was done.

You didn't mind.  

You did not.

It filled my mind and I have never felt more pain.

I trusted you and you lied.

You told me.

And you lied.
