When I said I would tell you the truth

When I said I
Would tell you
The truth,
Please know
I have dyed it
A subdued, pale
Shade of green,
Like the moss that
Covers the darker parts
Of my memories,
Of how he took my girlhood
Before it had gotten
To know me.
Rose tinted glasses
Are a poor replacement
For a coping mechanism,
So I took to metaphors
About invasive species
And how they kill you.

I would give this a broken heart since it broke my heart, but that would imply that it wasn't a good piece, so I give you a heart instead.
