I’d be lying if I said I didn’t miss you,
If I said I didn’t want you,
If I said I didn’t dream of your smile;
I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t hurting,
If I said I was just fine,
If I said it didn’t matter;
I’d be lying if I said memories don’t plague me,
If I said that I want to forget,
If I said I liked remembering;
I’d be lying if I said this was simple,
If I said I had the answer,
If I said I knew the outcome;
I’ve been lying!
