the day he confessed his love for her
he lied
she hopelessly created the world she desperately needed to see
to experience, to risk everything for the chance
to know, to feel, to understand heartbreak
her heart ventured unprotected
unable to stay loyal
that day, she never remembers the look in his eyes, the scent of his kiss
stained her hands
that day, she never remembers hearing truth
