Deceit  

You can read my words and pick them apart
But you'll never truly know what fuels them.
I've been patiently at ease with your vow in silence
But I can wait no longer for the truth to arrive.
Through life, a lie is worth a thousand truths.
Still I wait, still I hope
With these emotions unplaced
And this confusion that threatens my peace

I've witnessed the tattooed ivy leaves as your tongue
lingers deceit
Your beautiful lips spitting out poisonous lies
I will myself away from this world that is yours
For my patience wears thin
My only wish is to release the clutter that
fogs my mind
But can I leave it all behind
Can I move along?
