Poem
Just lie to me and lie to me because that is your only truth Lie to me and lie some more because it is the only way I see the real you I wonder if any of your sweet nothings were even a little true Wish I had x-ray vision or your lies were transparent, so I could say from the beginning I knew You lied to me and lied but I thought I was looking at the truth But I was blinded by your coffee kisses and caramel chocolate sweeter than… On a sugar high and at the same time a self-fulfilling low After all the lies for a little I had no pride left to show You played me and I still gave you flowers after the show, you played me, I opened up while you studied me just so you could glow So, lie to me and lie to me while you lie next to me, because I’m a fool A fool in love with love even though love always hurts you I’m a fool so no matter the lies and regrets my arms will still be waiting for you, as you lie next to him then come lie with me, whispering sweet nothings accompanied by sweet dreams But these words of sugar that mean everything to me unknowingly are nothing to you, but lies covered with sugar that appear to be the truth Truth enough to get by, truth enough to make a lie seem shy, truth enough to keep me around while you continue to spin me around in lies Web spent so tight I never outright questioned why It’s like you had eight legs leading down four different paths at the same time, while I thought I was on a one-way street, lost wasting time So, lie to me and keep lying my ears hear but listen no more because my heart is worth so much more than the sleeve I use to cover up with that you saw and assumed I was poor… p.s. I wish my eyes never laid on you, because a lover’s lie is always the sweetest dessert…
