Array ( [sid] => 105864 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Tried not to lie to you [time] => 2005-09-17 06:56:17 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I tried not to lie,
tried not to lie to you,
Sometimes was hard,
Sometimes was hard to do,
I made you cry,
I made you cry its true,
But I tried not to lie,
Tried not to lie to you.

We met at a place,
Where people don't get together,
You had such grace,
We spoke about the weather,
Stared into space,
As I inhaled your leather,
Your heart shaped face,
and my heart beating better.

Spent three lazy months,
Planning to get out of bed,
Falling in love,
And we were not scared,
Laughing at things,
That weren't all that good,
You fell for me,
I never thought you would.

Temperatures dropped,
leaves began to fall,
I didn't answer,
every single call,
started putting fuel,
on old flames again,
trying not to lie,
becoming a pain.

When I knew you fell,
I changed my attitude,
I know it's wrong,
But Babe it is the truth,
I can not lie,
I cannot lie to you,
I wish I did ,
But babe I don't love you.

Very nice poem.
I can really relate to this one. Happened to me a lot of times... Eventually the best thing to do is just to be honest about it and tell the truth. Which of course means you're going to hurt the other person. But we all get hurt sometimes and truly think that honesty is a great virtue.

Liked the tangibility and honesty in this poem. Nice work. Christopher.
