The Devil In Disguise

I wish I never told the truth, I wish I never Lied. I wish I could find a way to hold back my cry. These tears are just a symbol of what's now and what to come. My heart is in a lot of pain when I want it to be numb. I wanted just to tell the truth but I was the founder of more lies, But now I realize for a while that the Devil has been in disguise. ~Amber Jenkins

Be true to yourself Amber and everything will get easier for you in time ,be strong and courageous through the storm and you will come out of it all as a better person. life is filled with lessons and there are many of them that we must learn the hard way, but that is better then making the same mistakes over and over again. Thank you for your visit today and for your kind comments on my poem. Have a fantastic weekend, Dean

Very true Amber!Oh what a tangled web we weave,when we practice to deceive.For some it's compounded lies,till them dies.El diablo the wicked one,spoiling lives to have his fun.A practical and lovely poem.Nighty,night, Prince
