Never Listened

That awkward moment when i realized it was all a lie.
That all those times that I’d swear up and down that what sat right in front of my face wasn’t actually there.
It was.
And he told me so.


                                                              She never listened.
I spoke these words as effortlessly as i took them back.
And then said them again
“ I Love You “
Dancing between my teeth.
The most honest deception i have ever spoken.
When it was said it was meant.
But somehow it was taken was wrong .
Words spoken ever so clearly.
Taken with double meanings and secret codes.
Love given in a crystal glass.
Clouded by her misunderstanding and insecurity.
She never listened.

I never listened.
To those words true meanings.
He spoke those them so effortlessly ,
then he took them back.
Said them again and promised that he loved me.
“I Love You Too”
Danced between his teeth
The hardest pill to swallow
Or Not.
This addiction ,
All i ever longed for was you !
But
I never listened
