Truth Hurts #NationalPoetryDay

Just tell me what I wanna hear

the truth hurts me too much

We'll be together forever

I'm all you ever wanted

you love me

such and such.

Keep the problems from me

Shield me from the issues

I only have room for happy thoughts

No tears allowed
I'm all out of tissues

I've had my share of lonely times

And I've got "sorry" stacked up to

these ears of mine.

So whatever you do

Don't tell me the truth

Don't tell me this is just a phase

And that you're leaving soon

Don't tell me this was a mistake

Or that you feel I've trapped you

Don't tell me about the other girls

Or what happened that night

after the club

Keep letting me believe everything

is just fine

Keep making me believe you're in love
