Buy one of those blank cards with an appropriate picture on the front - this shows you've put a bit of time and thought into this -and write your message in that. Keep it brief and to the point. Say something like - I'm truly sorry I upset you so much, what I did was very wrong and I really regret it. You have always been a wonderful friend to me and I know I have thrown that friendship away. I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me and we can be friends once more. Just change the wording around a bit if these are not the type of words you use. Good luck!

Reading between the lines it sounds like you were either her friend then boyfriend or you wanted to be.
What ever has happened it is always hard to loose a close friend and to do it in such a way is to close a door tight.
You could try and write to her, explain why you lied, be honest this time and lay your soul bare.
Say what your friendship means to you and say how you see your relationship in the future if she will forgive you.
If you dont try, you will never know and if she means that much to you then its worth a few more goes, so write the letter, send the e-mail and send some sorry plants or flowers, anything that you know will make her smile and smiling is one small step to being forgiven.
If you are forgiven, never never lie to her again as friendship is such a preciouse thing and friends should always be honest with each other and support and comfort each other.
Good luck.
