Deception

Feed me your lies
They taste good on my tongue
Worm your way in
With the tales you’ve spun

Bind me in half-truths
Pull the wool over my eyes
Hide behind your mask
Your handsome disguise

You slink through the darkness
As you search for your prey
Oh why do I stand still,
When I should run away?

I see you now,
See who you really are
I curse myself,
For falling this far

Now faced with this choice
Of believing your lies,
Or of walking away
And severing all ties

My heart, it aches
My illusions I miss
Oh why did it all
Have to come to this?

Sometimes it is easier to believe the lies than it is to face the truth. However, those deceptions do have a way of worming their way right into one's heart and soul.

You, m'dear, deserve much better!!!

You did a fine job of expressing that kind of angst.

Maybe quit being the early bird, leave the worms alone? Most of us have been deceived at one time or another.
