On that night,
I had to look into your eyes,
And lie.
It was much worse than that,
You deserved a proper explanation.
I summed it up into a vague description,
"I can't give you what you deserve."
After that, the lies started pouring out.
I had to sit there and watch,
As you started to cry in the car.
I felt something inside of me die.
I'm sorry I can't tell you why,
It's better this way.
Just know that I care for you.
And I hope you're happy now.
And it is only fair for you to know.
What exactly did you deserve?
You deserved someone who would fight for you.
