Lies

November 3, 2020

You haven’t been
Completely honest
With me, you or anybody
Always telling half truths
Bald faced lies

The question is
Why, why?

Nothing gained by your actions
All lost in the aftermath
Of your lies
Your sordid lies,
Lies.

Will I tomorrow see
A new you as you say
The one to tell the truth

Or

Is it just another lie
One of your many, many
Lies.

I Do Wonder

May 4, 2015

I do wonder what would happen
If I didn’t tell the truth
Mired down in anguish
I’d may only say half truths.

Please tell me I wouldn’t

Please tell me I would
Be above and aloof
All the lies lying there
No where near the absolute

My absolute truth.
