Deception

Look into a liars eyes...
bleeding locked up failures
Unwilling to fathom compromise
A falseness stays in layers...

Keeping truth safe inside
A liars lie needs one to cover
Misinterpretating a landslide
Wait a bit ...uncover another

Liar Liar you'll always be
Telling lies comes easy to you
Justifying your harmony
Pittiful is me..I want truth!

I would not say that pitiful is the wanting of truth! And yes, liars always need another lie to cover up their last! Not a very pleasant cycle to find oneself within; for all concerned I would say! And definately, not a pretty picture within the eyes Heaven!! I hope that you are doing well my dear friend Janey!? Loved your message here dear! My love always to you and your loves, john!:) Have a beautiful day dear~bye!:)

Wonderful rhyme and flow! I agree with Kristen on this one! The truth SHOULD be held in the highest regard in all of our lives. Without truth there is no trust without trust there is no love without love there is no life. That is my opinion anyway! Great write, this one will get the readers all stirred up! Smiles from Lolita
