Pacify my Soul

...
In a quiet corner of a crowded town
Don't bear the blame with heads bow down
Mistake — If not yours 
Then it's not yours.
Trust yourself and stand beside you
For no one knows you; better than ...

...The venom drips, a sugared lie, 
A serpent's smile behind your eye. 
You claim to cherish, hold me dear, 
While whispering poison in my ear. 
A double-faced, deceitful thing, 
The cruelest song ...

Premium MemberSweet Venom

...The serpent's hiss, a venomous dart, 
Is honest hate, a tear right to the heart. 
But you, you whisper honeyed lies so sweet, 
A camouflage, a cunning, cruel deceit.


You smile so wide, a pain...

...I.	  The Settlement

          Hickory bark bluffs
          at the blend of two 
          rivers.
          Gasconade waters buttered
          with the muddy Missouri.

Disinformation

...Double-sided mirror
Deceptive reflections
Void of truth and beauty
Faith a small-time felon
Captured in a tight snare
Beyond pleasure and pains

Portraits not painted...

Life Control

...I’m worried and anxious and angry,
But I’ll never show it.
I’m scared lonely and insecure,
But I’ll never show it.
I’m depressed hateful and sinful,
But I’ll never show it.

Instead I’ll just ...

...I’ve lost all my faith

Meeting people who were double-faced

Who caring nothing, except their money

Even if I’m simple and naive

Afraid to see the truth
My conscience isn't clear

They live in an amazing prison,
That has no cops, no judges and mission.
They know no bounds,
Estranged and constantly growl.
They are locked inside forever,
In the back compartment o...

A few really know her, but none knows her hides.
She laughs. She loves. She screams. She flies at times,
Though to see her real face, no one tries.
