Don'T Ask I Won'T Tell

Don’t ask I won’t tell

Don’t ask me and I won’t tell you so wipe that puzzled look off your face we all know that the 
truth hurts much more than a lie
It has been said by the wizened for thousands of years that one and all are delivered their 
just desserts
In the dollar store aisle three is where they keep all the sugar coated treats and tidbits you 
consume so easily
But know this, you and I are done it’s all due to your lies, a mistake I won’t repeat 
I gave you my love without hesitation, question, or doubt it was your choice to cast it as dust 
in the wind
Through the anger, torment, and anguish in my soul you have sent my way I have still tried 
to be your friend
I feel for you still and though loathe admitting quite deeply and I will cry and petition for 
your release from hell
The forest for the trees girl, it’s a simple thing to take one little blue pill a day.
