I Breathe Lies

Betwixt our deceptive connection Lies told, to always end in I’ll never have a profound perspective As my skepticism results in your grin When our paths crossed Like two sailboats in a panoramic sea I believed you were mannerly Though, sprouted unexpectedly was your immorality My standpoint was already set My conception was that you’d abet To all the curves, bumps, and facets of me Though you’d never devote to me You’d only break me to debris Every word transmitted from your “soul” Carried no true sentimental worth Yet I believed you, over my mind you had control Desiring for your concealed lies to rebirth Lies and gas-lighting were brought upon me Despite your affectionate expressions I thought truth be told, that I was free But I’m now trapped under your early impressions Doubting and doubting your false affection Perhaps you don’t know how to express emotion? But deep inside, I know that’s untrue That I’m just someone to be used, at least to you Though acceptance is quite challenging for me I’m unsure of why I still trust you As you treat me like nobody Though these lies will forever pursue.
