"I love you"

Seeing my phone flash
With these three words
My heart skipped a beat.
This wasn't a treat.

I knew you were lying.
You never meant it.
Not the previous time,
Not even now.
Upon the ladder of lies
I don't wish to climb.
Again.

"I miss you"

There it was, another text.
Another lie.
Aren't you tired?
Or maybe, you're high.

No matter
How hard you try
I ain't gonna fall in the trap
Of your pretty lies.

"Goodbye."
I typed.
I sent it.
And this time, I meant it.
