Death By Deceit: the Heart of a Lied To Lover

Don't feed me with the bullshit.

I can't handle all the lies.

I just might overdose.

I just may up and die.


Although you lie so sweetly its wearing oh so thin.

You words flow just like velvet I can't help but let you in.

Just don't feed me with the bullshit.

It only makes me cry.

I just might overdose.

Why can't you try the truth, you just might be surprised.


You kill me oh so softly with each word that you speak.

I'm wearing down, oh baby I feel like I can't breathe.

You kept feeding me with the bullshit.

Now i"m laying six feet underground.

Where did I go wrong?


All I did was love you, gave you my affection.

Bu all you did oh baby was write me a death sentence.


I now bid you adue.

A sweet fair-well goodbye.

I can honestly say I loved you.

I just wish we could have survived.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
