You said you were clean
You promised you were
But you lied.

You said no more
You said never again
But you lied.

I wish it weren't true
I wish i didn't happen
But you lied.

Our hearts are broken
You may not have meant to hurt us
But you lied.

You betrayed us
The trust is gone
Because you lied.

When I found out my uncle had misused drugs for the 3rd time, I was devistated and so angry at him so I wrote this poem that he will probably never see.
