Premium MemberCaretakers of Your Heart

Friends and family allow you to see your strengths and faults, through sympathetic eyes; and never waver, should you disagree. Even subjected to the third degree; standing steadfast, they will not compromise: friends and family allow you to see Offering unflinching support for free, they rejuvenate and revitalize: and never waver, should you disagree. They applaud your accomplishments with glee, things that others tend to trivialize: friends and family allow you to see. Caretakers of your heart, they hold the key, to unlock the virtues they recognize: and never waver, should you disagree. Pushing you to be all that you can be, they even defend your outrageous lies. Friends and family allow you to see, and never waver, should you disagree.


Premium MemberSadder, But Wiser

Caught up in your words of sincerity
Closest of friends, we shared from our hearts
Twisting the truth was your reality.

A wounded soul, you craved security
I wanted to help you, to do my part
Caught up in your words of sincerity.

You shared past hurts, had a sad history
It was important to make a fresh start
Twisting the truth was your reality.  

Naive, I bared my soul too easily
But you had a manipulative heart
Caught up in your words of sincerity.

In time, I found out you had lied to me
You took what you needed, as I fell apart
Twisting the truth was your reality.

The sorrow remains, as I take my leave
A life lesson learned, at least on my part
Caught up in your words of sincerity
Twisting the truth was your reality.
