My world was so perfect,

Until one day I realized

That all of the promises that touched my lips

Were unknowingly full of lies.

“You’re the only one I want,

You’re the very best.”

I said these words when I lied

And lied just like the rest.

For now I’m torn

Between the two,

The love of old

And notice of new,

And it scares me to know

That my perfect world holds doubt

And could easily be destroyed

If he only found out.

Torn between my love and friend,

Torn to pieces by the end.

Torn between truth and pretend,

Torn to pieces by the end.
