Is this what you would call a drabble? Definitely a one-shot ~


~ A Lie ~

.::A tragic one-shot drabble::.

"Sometimes it isn't they who cannot be trusted."


I met you once, you and your midnight hair and dark blue eyes.

My heart would race every time I saw you.

My eyes would be drawn into yours.

My body would tremble all over.

My face would flare red.

But you would tease me, with your alluring gaze.

You would grin at my failure.

You would mock my flaws.

You would make fun of my hair.

You would lie.

And so I denied.

You laughed at my crush, told me he was false. I thought you were lying.

I told you no.

You told me I was pretty, that you liked my hair. I thought you were lying.

I told you no.

They told me you liked me, liked who I was. I thought they were lying.

I told them no.

You asked me out, out on a date. I thought you were lying.

I told you no.

They told me he was faking love, faking his kisses. I thought they were lying.

I told them no.

You whispered your love, told me your wish. I thought you were lying.

I told you no.

He left my hand, told me you were right. I thought he was lying.

I told him no.

You came to me and told me his lies. I thought you were lying.

I told you no.

I cursed at you, I shouted foul language and swore your name.

I told you no.

I rejected your love.

I denied my heart.

I blamed you and your words.

I confessed your lies.

I damned you to hell.

But yet you came back, again and again.

You asked me for my hand in marriage once, bent on one knee.

But you were lying. You always lied.

So I told you no.

You held my hand and said that you would love me.

Now and forever.

But you couldn't love me, you could not be trusted.

So I told you no.

Then they came, screaming my name.

They told me you were standing there, right at the edge.

Told me you were crying.

Told me you were going to jump.

But it was a lie. You could not be there. You could not be crying. You could not jump.

Still I said no.

But you knew all along, that he couldn't be trusted.

You knew I was pretty, and told me so.

They knew that you liked me, liked me for me.

You knew that you wanted me, and asked me on that date.

They knew he was fake, faking his kisses.

You knew that you loved me, you knew what you wished.

He knew he was wrong, and knew you were right.

You knew of his lies, his deceitful tales.

You knew I was lying, when I cursed your name.

Because you wanted me by your side.

Because you loved me.

Because I was the one lying.

I wanted to say yes, but I denied it all. And so you did it.

You stood.

You cried.

You jumped.

You left.

My heart no longer races.

My eyes are no longer drawn.

My body no longer trembles.

My faces no longer flares red.

All those times I denied your love, denied my heart. And so I am alone.

Now and forever.

Living without you and your love.

Because you are gone.

All because

I lied.
