Envy

I want what you have

Without knowing the full price

That needs to be paid 

Lies

Your eyes tell tales 

Of care and warmth

And kindness and love

But stand too close 

And your eyes light fires 

Of pain and hurt 

And deceit and lies 

Glossy Veneer

He’s no Romeo
My desires betray
The brutal reality
Of the truth behind
The glossy veneer
I’m torn in two
Wanting, needing
My fantasies to be true
But there is no truth
Only a bitter lie
And a bitter pill
For me to consume

Venom

Smoky Air

Your words wrap around my heart
As your promises haunt my mind
Your deceit hangs like smoky air
Polluting my life with poisonous lies
