Your sly lies
Slither out of your mouth
With a fork-tongued rhyme
And a fork-tongued sound.
Your eyes chime,
Emitting devils’ spray,
Numbing my mind
And breaking my willful ways.
Your cries hypnotize
And draw me near,
Quieting my surprise
And telling me what I want to hear.
Why do you lie
When I am around,
Instead of sharing the prize
Of the love that we’ve found?
