Lies.......
I tremble across from you
Staring into your big blue eyes,
Clenched fist, white knuckled
As your tongue unfolds its lies.
I grind my teeth together
An earthquake in my head,
It was just an old friend
Is what you bitterly said.
My chest a beating drum
Pumping hidden rage,
You pretend like nothing happened
Picking at a leafed sage.
My vision speckled white
I become reckless emotion,
Plates shatter on the ground
Its time for your deaths potion.
I let go of all control
And grip your frail neck,
Fear slips from objecting lips
As you hit our splintered deck.
I press down with all my weight
Its like emptying a sponge,
Our dog barks and disagrees
As it tries for one last lunge.
My shaking hands release
Your eyes roll into abyss,
Regret rushes through
There was no last kiss.
I sit across from you
Staring into your big blue eyes,
Clenched fist, white knuckled
All I ever hear are your lies.

But I don't regret it
Other people were there
Other people know
One of them told her
They

of silver lined lies

in an intricate
lace-patterned cloak
of deceit
and slowly
it
I wish I could have seen
your face when you told me
"I love you"
I just know you were winkng
at the girl all dressed in
