His smile shines bright like the moon on the darkest nights
His voice is smooth and melts my every being with the words he says.
The way he looks at me it's like I'm the only girl in the world,
Well at least that's what I thought,
See I wasn't the only one who had your heart while I was trying to love you, you were busy loving someone else
The sweet nothings you whispered into my ear were filled with lies
My tear filled eyes, running nose and questioning god why?!
Why did I have to fall for you? Why did I believe in your lies? Why did I think we could have been more than nothing? Why wasn't I the only one for you?
I smile every day trying to hide the pain
The constant "hey are you okay"slowly tears me away
I know I say I'm fine but deep down inside I still cry
I cry because of the petty lies

Reaching Out
I promise her. I'd do anything for her. She's my mom. Even as Lanie and Deanna are flying home, Mom is scrappy fighting dying. She lays too still in that too-big bed with all the toasty white hospital blankets, in the south tower, at the broad end of a long slow-turning corner that delivers me again to her private room with the view she can't see through, with the beeping that tells us nothing new, and all these ice chips she can't swallow, and a flood of well-intentioned nurses who cannot do a damned thing all the same.
