Lies of Content

Bury me in your lies of content So much of my time spent Wishing I could understand you Wishing you'd understand what you put me through shed the tear of false hope Lose the ability to cope With the silence, and the answers lost behind a locked door Lost in a place unknown...I fall to the floor You are my best friend... But I question what I am to you, and if anything ever really mattered in the end Did you know I tell you everything... And I thought you did too, but now I realize...I am told nothing Grant me the lie of your fantasy Slave away to hide in the mystery How many others do you hide from, Or am I the only one?

Interesting write. It's true - many people hide things from others and confide in another. Everybody expresses themselves differently with other people. But some only stay hidden at all costs. Hiding things that people will sense are hidden. Cool poem. . . Always, Laura
