White Lies

In love white lies are kept under white sheets where whispers roll over pillowtops and warm breaths are exchanged during kisses of passion but the white lies bundled up spring lose deception that tears up the covers wrapped around my head as I cry myself to sleep In love white lies are told when we are thousands of miles apart to spare each other the pain of the sting hurt feelings we cause THESE WHITE LIES NEVER SEEM TO STOP WHITE LIES when you tell me i am perfect as I am WHITE LIES when you tell me i am what you want. which is not a perfect doll your stories have become so entangled with my words of i love you's and please don't go's as i feel like you have let me go and I continue to fall as you watch me fall into the grond I have become lost in a maze of your stories and even now i go forward following your voice trusting you that you'll get me to saftey but you've led me so astray that I've begun to lose sight hope for us one day these white lies will become silent and you lose me
