When the Heart Lies

When the heart lies, Tears emerged and stood in the eyes. Emotions built in the heart Falling in love seems dangerous Smiles disappeared and odd cry dwells. The blood runs dry in the veins, And truth a hundred miles away from the heart. Love taste sour as hatred emerged, Bitterness of the heart grows more wings, very dangerous and visible. Tossing and tossing things around in the heart. Body cells shattered away in horror When the lies A blemish is left within the heart Howling to be healed with a prince kiss. Unknown scars of yesterday Remained visible on the sword Kept in the scabbard. Scab drawn within, intensively, And memories of good days hung high upon mountain Exchange of wind blows set in. When the heart lies, the heart becomes shrank and softer. As trust escape through the door and anger hasten in. Separated world and twisted fate Twisted fate such as twist Of each married man as one heart becomes two. Loneliness entered as fondness hasten away Darkness of the night becomes visible to the eyes Back to back on the bed, Dinning before the other if the appetites were there When the heart lies, the iron ring would be thrust aside and trampled upon. World apart, Two together becomes apart. Marriage is not a bed of roses neither relationship a sweet songs. Mother warned you to be faithful Remembering the oats on the altar White gown wore with veil now turns black and red. Lying dismantled the holy matrimony. Oh! The serpent at it again, The old deceiver of the world Here lie our first parents whom you deceived Of which use is your power when you make us lie? When the heart lies, It brings Bruises on the face Infidelity brought the pains Thousand warning unheard Waite for the miserable life in future When you have too many mouth to feed. Take care humble heart, take care emotions Take care father heart, least you perish in misery. (JOHN CHIZOBA VINCENT)
