Poetry: Another day

by Edan Wright

Created on: December 05, 2009   Last Updated: November 24, 2010

I see it all to clear, but I will fake my blind demise.

I will face this wicked lie, but not today.

I will face this wicked truth another day.

Oh, Lie to me this night.

Breathless whispers in a cold tongue,

rung hard with hidden emotion ..

Pulling on the strings of my devotion.

Lie to me tonight.

Hanging on words you pass as pure,

I will take them in.

I will chase this fading trace of innocence.

Embrace this vengeance.

I will face this wicked lie.

But not today.

I will face this wicked truth another day.

Kiss me ... lips unpure.

Touch me ... unclean hands.

This tainted night I know too well,

but this is where I choose to dwell.

I will face this wicked lie, but not today.

I will face this truth another day.
