Two Faced

Two Faced isn't just 
a character in a Batman sequel
but behind the faces
of all the world's people

Two Faced is when 
you look someone in the eyes
see behind the smile
viewing the scene of the crime

You see it 
everyday of your life
doesnt matter if it's
your brother, your neighbor or even your wife

Two Faced is
the truth behind the lie
justice weighing her options
should he live or should he die

Today in a world
where hypocrisy is abundant
telling the truth
seems o' so simply redundant
