Deception

I thought I saw the look of love in your eyes,
But now I know what I saw were lies.

perhaps not at the moment you saw it, perhaps love became a lie? Congrad's Light & Love

Physically, there is little difference between a man and a woman, but hooray for that little difference. OH, yes, I know - men be no damn good. But us old men be good - we be having no choice. Love, daver

some people are good at faking it to get what they want. why don't they care? it just goes to show, you think you know someone, but you really don't. sad really. hope you weren't hurt too bad by this liar.

Perfect Carolyn, having BOTH number of words and number of syllables be twenty is excellent! You excelled over and beyond what you needed to write, and you wrote a brilliant poem on top of that! Your write is truly a special write where I have been before early in my life! I love your poem that I have read this evening my friend! Great Work!!
