He loved her.
He loves her still-
Me? What about me?
I cleave to what I learned from her,
I leave behind what she took from me.
I was her.
She is me.
We are one in the same.
Lies,that’s what it was all about.
-that is not true…there was an honest love.
Love admist lies
Lies so thick, there are few way out.
Death: death would have been easier
than telling the truth.
But tell the truth I did.
Everything.
To him, to them. To him.
I cleave to what I learned from her.
I leave behind what she took from me.
I was her.
She is me.
We are one in the same.
He cannot forget her-
And here lies the most painful part-
…there never was a her.
I was her.
She is me.
We are ONE.
I cleave to what I learned from her and I leave
behind what she has taken from me.
Please…forgive me.
