Lying Love

By: Tamela Creech Dove

Going through old letters
Brings tears to my eyes.
There's nothing better
Than reading again... all those lies.

So much in love was I,
That curtains were drawn, closed
To sheild my heart's cry
And hide the threats posed.

I shall always be beholden to you
For you taught me a fact of life.
When one wants a love that lasts,
One should not love a man with a wife.
