Dear Liar Can You Hear Me

A liar is a liar however they conspire,
Not showing their intentions or true desire,
They manipulate by not saying or speaking their truth,
They know how to hold back information from you,
They test your waters by not opening up,
They don't tell the whole story they just say enough,
Some can look as innocent and as shiny as gold,
But trust me there's so much you do not know,
And the whole time that you care and remain transparent to them,
They believe your earning their trust to reel you back in again,
They have no trust in the purpose in which is sent,
Or to even understand the purpose behind that friend,
Pride and fear stand in the way,
They will compete and compare you only to walk away,
And then later when they realize their way never worked,
They want you back in their life because you were real from the door,
After smashing your intentions and smearing your name,
Without realizing that even after all of that you have no shame,
And the only shame that's left is on their behalf,
Because they never approached you honestly or even acted like they cared,
Your freedom is your honesty without pride or fear,
Your beauty is internally what you hold dear,

It's trust issues and how they feel about themselves and it only self sabotages their relationships because they were sneaky from the door

I know..I just can't stand when I meet someone who is like this, it crawls up my spine, and it's totally intentional on their part and it just takes time to see through it after the whole time your making an effort to b genuine and honest showing them it's ok to be honest and real n not secretive.
