just write: pretty lies.
the lies sounded oh so pretty
from your lips into my ears,
you draped them on me like precious jewels,
which I polished with my tears.
you gave me diamonds, pearls, and rubies
made from lies told as the truth,
and I still wear them every day
for they’re all I have left of you.

That's so beautiful and sad at the same time. This reminds me of my college boyfriend.

This just gave me shivers, no lies. Amazing!
Stunning. You know when a young kid belts out a song that is so deep and you wonder how they can convey that message so well when they obviously have not experienced that depth? I am curious about your life, Chelsea!
Beautiful words!
