The Heart Has Lied

Trust me, the love still remains Yet for the time being, it's weak at the best Trust me, it's all still there just boxed up With some time, I can handle the rest. Trust me, this road may get uneven at times We may even encounter a landslide or two along the way Trust me, I know what it is to stumble I know how it feels to face dark and stormy days. Trust me, though it hurts now it will someday end You'll become numb to the pain you now have inside Trust me, the echoes from the lies will just suddenly stop Then from that moment, no more tears shall you cry. Trust me, time does take care of everything one faces in life It does eventually get easier, all the things we go through Trust me, the sun has to return at some point in time Until that moment, there isn't really much you can do. Trust me, I've been through it all before There comes a time that it's all different than it first seems Trust me, love when given the time that's required Will eventually silence not only some, but all of your internal screams. Trust me, when it ends there won't be any surprise at all Your heart will already be partially healed Trust me, I know that it will hurt you like hell when it comes Mainly because you just can't flip the switch on how you feel. Trust me, said the heart to the little girl bringing chocolates This will be a good start said the heart to the boy with roses Trust me, said the heart to the couple pouring out their souls But the heart lied, it's truth only comes in the smallest doses.             April 9, 2020
