Lies

Some People May Think
A Lie Is Not Truth
What Does It Mean
For Him, Me, or You?

A Lie Is Much More 
Then Words from a Mouth
Deep Down to the Core 
Filling You with Doubt 

A Lie is Being Betrayed 
Cut Down in Size
Someone to Blame
Unacceptable Life

A Lie is Broken Trust
Very Hard to Repair
You Question, They Cuss
Doesn't Really Seem Fair

A Lie is the End of
What You Once Knew 
Many of the Next Days
Saying Sorry Without Truth

A Lie is a Fresh Start of
of How Untrusting Can Be
You Are Drifting Apart
Still Trying, It Seems 

A Lie is Destruction
of Another's Sane Mind
Without Any Repercussions
Just Spiraling Thru Life
 
A Lie Can Be Death
For Those Whom May Feel
That it Would Only be Best
Words Never Heal
