Candles burn
To hide the fire
Scorching your soul.
The mask is the only
Disguise you know.

You asked me
What I wanted,
But I didn't know.
You took what you wanted
And still
There was nothing
Left to show.

I felt his heartbeat
As I thought of you,
And I wondered what
I was supposed to feel.
Regret, guilt, remorse?
But I was numb,
Unable to think or feel.

In these bed of lies
There is an emptiness,
A loneliness I feel inside.
I feel your body,
But I remain in darkness,
Numb to kiss or touch.
When you say it's over
I hear him whisper
That he loves me
And I don't know
Which bed I'm in
Or who I'm with.
I just know I can't get out
Of this bed of lies
I've trapped myself in.

Thank you for the comments MzEm and Gossipmpm. Unfortunately this poem is very true right now in my life...
