How Could He?

By: Susie A

He has walked away from me,
I can't believe this could be!
He asked me for another chance,
And I gave it to him without a glance.
He acted so sweet at first.
But later, I found out differently,
And I felt so cursed.
For I tried it again,
But, of course, his lies began.
How can one lie so much?
But yet make it seem they would die to feel your touch.
How can he do this?
What we had does he not miss?
In the hospital, I sat by his side.
I wouldn't leave, even when offered a ride.
I stayed with him,
Because I felt there I belonged.
But now I realize, I was all wrong.
With him I should not be,
For she is all he could see.
Whenever I think of them together,
Tears come to my eyes.
For all I heard was his numerous lies.
I do believe, to be nice, he has got the potential.
But for some reason he thinks his lies are essential.
Does he not see what his lies do?
Or does he just not know.. how to be true?
