Premium Member The Minister's Alibi

The ministers wife was annoyed,
When he a young miss had decoyed.
"But," said the preacher,
"I'm trying to teach her
The practices she must avoid!"

My Alibi

This is all an alibi
Let's pretend I wasn't there

In my mind
I'm in a different place anyway
That's the place where I truly care

This is all an illusion
A magic trick that never ends

Someday I'll snap out of it
And life will never be the same

Premium Member A Secrets Alibi

i can keep secrets
      hold them captive in my mind 
           caged against their will
           never tell another soul 
    ~ you didn't hear this from me

In the end, we were there-not there,
two present absentees 
sharing an apartment vacated by a relationship 
and the worst kind of loneliness -- feeling solitary next to someone --
partners in the crime of abetting mutual misery,
though neither of us can really be linked 
to the crime scene, can we? 

We’ve got each other’s alibi.

Giving An Alibi

G-iving an alibi or reason 
R-esults to another miscue; 
E-xcuses are just flimsy, 
T-hey have little worth or value. 
H-ow can giving an alibi 
E-xempt one from liability? 
L-iars are fathered by Satan, as they have no plausibility. 

T-welfth of February Monday, 
A-dmit your lapse neath the sky; 
G-auzy plea pleases not God, 
R-efrain from giving an 
A-libi.

My Sweet Alibi

My sweet alibi-
that hides beyond my smiles
But every time you hold me near
I conquer even my biggest fear

Shadows in the dark their was I
Searching for the answer I couldn't help but cry
Life with no existence I learned to live
In your eyes that once make believe

My love for you was never a lie 
A feeling so strong as time goes by
But for now-I choose to smile
to wear my mask and alibi

For it is my only shield
Afraid that soon-your love would fade
