Untitiled

When you say you love me
my throat goes dry
my fingers tremble
my eyes go wide

Your arms around me
my back so stiff
you pull me closer
and lean in for a kiss

My hand shoots out
and blocks your way
No words come out
there is nothing to say

Your eyes so hard
so cold, so dark
push me away
I back off with a start

Your throat goes dry
your fingers tremble
your eyes go wide
as you remember

The words I said
so long ago
come back to you
so fast, so cold
I watch, I see, I hear, I know
the instant, the moment
you are sold.

I never loved you
I never tried
Your only wish
was that I never lied.
