Lie

It was never enough,
To be yours behind the scenes.
To tell you I love you,
Only in whispers.

As if our love was only fantasy,
A convincing figment of my imagination.
You said it was temporary,
This cloak and dagger affair.
I only wanted the simply things,
But that was too close to the truth.
I wanted you in the light of day,
To crumble this solitary secret.
The farce became to much for me,
I couldn't be your lie anymore.
I walked away,
Free from the burden of us.
Left you behind,
With nothing say.
