Second chance

Why do you feel the need to lie?
Why must you lie to me?
What have I done to you?

You know I hate being lied to.
You know I hate it when you lie to me.
You know I hate liars.

And still you lie.
You lie to me.
You lie to others.

I don't lie to you.
I don't think I ever have.
And I never would.

I would take a bullet for you.
I always respected your space.
Always respected your decisions.

And you can't give me the same respect.
You tell secrets, ones that aren't yours to tell.
And you keep secrets that aren't yours to keep.

You've broken my trust.
This isn't the first time.
I trusted you.

I feel foolish.
For ever trusting you.
For letting you in.

But never again.
I'm shutting down.
I'm shutting you out.

I can't say I'm sorry.
I still won't lie to you.
There are no second chances.

I hate liars.
You lied to me.
You won't get a second chance.
