I've never told a lie, and that makes me a liar.
I've never made a bet, but we gamble with desire.
I've never lit a match, with intent to start a fire.
But recently, the flames are getting out of control.
Call me a name, kill me with words.
Forget about me, if it's what I deserve.

P.S. I saw it... The tears in her eyes... And I couldn't do a single thing except make stupid jokes & talk about stuff to take her mind off things... What a letdown... Totally helpless... More accurately, hopeless...

So near, yet so far...
