Crying Wolf

I know about the lies, I notice your reactions. Things don't add up. Honesty is a big issue for me. Lie to me, break my trust and everything goes. You have lost me completely.

I talk to you out of common courtesy. The same courtesy I give to everyone I meet. I cringe when I read your messages, see your name on my caller ID. The next time you see me will be the last. That's how repulsed I am by you.

There is no pride in pretending to be better than you are, in bragging about things that have no ounce of truth. You have destroyed your whole picture in my head, in my heart. Deception deserves no respect. Question is, do you lie consciously or are you living in your own alternate reality?

I am saddened to know that you have lied to me all this time. Was our friendship a lie too? Was it because I believed everything you told me without questioning its validity? Was your account of that afternoon an exaggeration? I don't care to know. I don't need to. We are done. I will not waste my time, my efforts, and my honesty on you. You are sick. You need professional help. Forgive me for not being kind. I am unable to extend the courtesy.

I pray to God you will get better...for your own sake, for your mother who believes every tear, every word, every lie. Bless her.

Don't cry wolf to me again. It will not work. Your lies are permanently stuck in my head.
