My Truths
My truths, your truths and lies
Mind games, gaslighting, fooling, deceiving, tricking, and misleading
The power of words connects, it can be so deceiving
So many shades of grey for a little white lie
The veil on her green eyes
Subtly hides the pain so deep of her husband truths
Revealing an anguish from within that was not part of
“I do” on the day they took their solemn vows
The bottle in the trembling hand in truth
Is the mysterious secret mistress - sadly
To the diseased mind the truth is at the bottom
Making believe is her truth as she smiles and laughs
Her truths, his truths, a tie.
